Amid intensifying global anti-monopoly regulation, China has improved its anti-monopoly regulation framework in recent years through landmark rulings and institutional refinements, which is not only reshaping domestic market competition but also drawing clearer compliance lines for multinationals operating in China. 

Four senior partners of Zhonglun W&D Law Firm co-authored an invited expert article for Global Competition Review (GCR). The article covers major anti-monopoly developments in China, offering in-depth case analyses, a comparison of digital market regulatory mechanisms in China and Europe, and insights into China’s M&A market trends. It also explores the shift in anti-monopoly law enforcement from ex-post penalties to ex-ante compliance, and assesses the far-reaching implications of the latest judicial and regulatory trends for global market players.

Focusing on China’s anti-monopoly practice between 2024 and 2025, the article combines cutting-edge insights with rigorous analysis. It interprets regulatory trends from both legal and economic perspectives and offers businesses compliance guidance of substantial theoretical and practical value.
