Regulation aimed at market structure and concentrated economic power rather than at any one industry's conduct. Belongs here: the Sherman Antitrust Act as the founding United States statute, the Anti-Monopoly Law of the People's Republic of China, the UK Competition Act 1998, and the EU Digital Markets Act as a modern platform-specific competition statute. Does not belong here: a statute regulating a financial market's conduct rather than its concentration, grouped under financial and securities regulation instead.
