Abstract

ABSTRACT Competition authorities and other regulators already rely on data science to monitor markets and check compliance with applicable rules. The Digital Markets Act and the Digital Services Act have made the use of data science by regulators even more relevant, given the scale and complexity of the oversight required. The existing use of data science shows that regulators are able to adapt their organizations and processes to realize the potential of using technology tools in their activities. At the same time, the use of data science poses challenges in terms of data reliability and individual privacy. Beyond involvement in specific investigations, data science also has the potential to reform the work of regulators by moving towards a more proactive form of enforcement. The sharing of data science expertise and tools between regulators deserves to be further facilitated to increase collaboration and share resources in monitoring the platform economy.
