Abstract

Mit der 10. Novelle des Gesetzes gegen Wettbewerbsbeschränkungen (GWB; Anfang 2021 in Kraft getreten) sollen die deutschen Wettbewerbsregeln modernisiert und an die Erfordernisse der Digitalwirtschaft angepasst werden, weswegen die Novelle auch als GWB-Digitalisierungsgesetz bezeichnet wird. Der Beitrag stellt die wesentlichen digitalisierungsbezogenen Änderungen der deutschen Wettbewerbsregeln in verständlicher Weise dar und zeigt anhand der Fallpraxis des Bundeskartellamts eine Reihe von relevanten Auswirkungen auf.
