|May 22, 2025
(RNS, 21-05-25) Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman has said that emergence of gatekeeper platforms has challenged free and fair digital markets even as she calls for global cooperation and agile regulation to tackle the rise of cross-border digital monopolies demands.
-
The finance minister was speaking at the 16th Annual Day Celebrations of the Competition Commission of India (CCI) here on Tuesday.
Gatekeeper platforms are large tech companies with significant market dominance, and which control a large number of digital services across the globe. Tech giants like Google and Amazon and Meta have constantly come under anti-trust regulator's scrutiny across the world.
Sitharaman also expressed her concern on issues like market power, transparency, data access, algorithmic biases, and the scope of competitive harm that emergence of artificial intelligence can cause.
