  • Description: The DMA is unlikely to significantly change abuse of dominance enforcement by the European Commission and by NCAs since the vast majority of abuse of dominance cases do not concern gatekeepers of core platform services and, even some cases that do, do not concern the obligations and prohibitions of the Articles 5 to 7 of the DMA. Tensions between the DMA and certain new national prohibitions of uniliteral practices are more likely, however, with their resolution depending on the interpretation of the Articles 1(5) and 1(6) of the DMA. In addition, for gatekeepers, the existence of regulatory obligations under the DMA may have an interpretative effect when assessing the existence of an abuse of dominance. However, spill overs to non-gatekeepers are unlikely
