The Digital Markets Act (DMA) is designed to regulate large tech companies—referred to as gatekeepers—to prevent unfair practices that disadvantage smaller competitors. It aims to promote a more balanced and competitive digital market in the EU. While GDPR covers data privacy, the Payment Services Directive governs financial services, and the Cyber Resilience Act focuses on security standards, none of these directly address platform dominance or market fairness.
