The pencil of the Office of Economic Competition will be thick when it comes to online marketplaces. Recently, the GVH has imposed several heavy fines, amounting to billions, for conduct in online marketplaces – just think proceedings against Booking.com B.V., Alza.hu Kft. and Alza.hu Kft.

This process has not been completed, as public information also confirms that further proceedings are ongoing. As previously declared by the GVH, for example in its medium-term digital strategy, and as indicated by the level of fines imposed, the GVH considers the importance of online marketplaces to be outstanding.
