Spain: Software and Database Companies should ensure the services they provide cannot be used by their clients to violate Antitrust Rules
31 December 2021
The Spanish Competition Authority's Proptech Resolution not only declares companies active in the real estate brokerage market liable for infringing Articles 1 LDC and 101 TFEU, but also includes certain software and database service providers in the investigation. This Resolution justifies the need for a detailed antitrust compliance analysis, even for companies that are not active in the market to which the anticompetitive agreement relates to.
