ETNO and GSMA welcome the Commission’s initiative to create a harmonised ex-ante instrument targeted at the providers of core platforms services designated as gatekeepers via the Digital Markets Act (DMA). Current legislative instruments are not sufficient to ensure contestable and fair markets in the digital economy. This would also support the DMA’s objective to strengthen the internal market by setting out harmonised rules across the EU.
We share the Commission’s concerns about unfair and anticompetitive conducts by a few large digital platforms, which stifle opportunities for competitors and ultimately have a chilling effect on innovation and diminish consumer choice.
Read the telecom industry view on the DMA at the link below.

What is The digital economy and society index
The Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI Index) is a composite index that summarises relevant indicators on Europe’s digital performance and tracks the evolution of EU Member States in digital competitiveness. The 5 key areas taken into account are Connectivity, Human Capital, Use of Internet Services, Integration of Digital Technology and Digital Public Services.
In the course of 2019, all EU countries improved their digital performance. Finland, Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands scored the highest ratings in DESI 2020 and are among the global leaders in digitalisation. These countries are followed by Malta, Ireland and Estonia. Some other countries however still have a long way to go, and the EU as a whole needs improvement to be able to compete on the global stage. |

What holds Europe back for closing the #5G gap and grasping the opportunities 5G brings for society? There are a mixture of factors, including: fragmented EU markets, red tape, spectrum release and restrictive conditions. More details via @POLTITICOEurope: politi.co/3a4HpOa
