Frontier responds to CMA consultations on a range of reforms to the UK competition regime

The CMA launched its 4Ps framework in February 2025, with the aim of improving the pace, predictability, proportionality and process of the UK’s competition regime.

Since then, the CMA has consulted on various aspects of its mergers and markets work and has continued to update its guidance on the assessment of competition cases.

Frontier has actively engaged with these CMA consultations, including its ongoing consultation on merger efficiencies. Click below to read our full consultation responses.
