The Fair Trade Commission (FTC) is revising regulations on platform operators mergers and acquisitions (M&A) deals in hopes of restraining their expansion.
According to the government, the FTC will review its regulation guidelines internally within this year and outsource the study on their effectiveness to a private research institute next year. Any regulation changes will be put into effect in 2022.
