Signed on June 9, the agreement establishes a framework for monitoring and addressing anti-competitive practices and other concerns covered by the Philippine Competition Act.
Under the partnership, IEMOP will provide market data and reports to support oversight efforts, while the PCC will offer technical guidance in identifying potential competition issues.
