The Chairman of the Indonesian Competition Commission (Komisi Pengawas Persaingan Usaha, (KPPU)) has issued two new regulations. The first is on a new approach to defining relevant market, with the aim of addressing dual and multi-sided markets in the digital economy (KPPU Chairman Regulation No. 4 of 2022). The second is on criteria and requirements for paying administrative fines by instalments (KPPU Chairman Regulation No. 1 of 2023). Introducing a legal instrument through a KPPU Chairman Regulation - which arguably should not be binding on parties beyond KPPU itself - is unprecedented, and we may see these two KPPU Chairman regulations challenged in the future.
