Title: Remedies in digital markets in Latin America and the Caribbean
Abstract: Digital markets have been a growing area of focus for competition authorities in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). This paper explores the use of remedies in digital markets, to provide a picture of how competition authorities, both within LAC and beyond, are addressing competition concerns in this sector. The paper begins with an overview of the key competition concerns and remedies observed in the region, connecting them to broader global trends. It then identifies key aspects of how authorities in LAC are approaching remedies, including: the types of remedies used, the role of interim measures and commitments procedures, and the presence and impact of extraterritorial effects. The paper concludes by highlighting the range of tools available to competition authorities in LAC to further enhance enforcement efforts and remedy design going forward.
