Britain’s watchdog investigating unfair conduct at Amazon

Amazon is being placed under the spotlight in Britain, with the nation’s antitrust watchdog investigating whether the company has engaged in unfair conduct

Britain’s CMA is wanting to establish whether Amazon’s own sellers have an advantage in its marketplace over third parties.

The body is concerned the company’s practices are lessening competition and consumers are getting a worse deal as a result.

The CMA says it is looking into Amazon’s third-party data to see if it’s being used to boost its own retail business, and favour sellers who use the company’s logistics and delivery services.

The investigation follows a similar matter which is ongoing in Europe.

Amazon says it will continue to work closely with the CMA during the investigation.
