The head of Germany's competition watchdog Andreas Mundt argues that EU member states should have enforcement powers over the bloc’s digital markets rules, rather than the European Commission being the sole enforcer. This could allow national authorities to better align EU rules with domestic antitrust laws.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You gain new routes to influence market rules as EU member states push to share enforcement power with Brussels. This change lets you work directly with national enforcers to align EU and local antitrust action faster.
