2014 Annual Competition Report: EU competition policy’s contribution to the Commission’s growth and jobs agenda

The European Commission has today published the 2014 Annual Competition Report, which illustrates the extent to which EU competition policy initiatives and enforcement activities have contributed to the European Commission’s growth and jobs agenda. The Report in particular provides concrete examples of how competition policy was used in 2014 to address EU challenges in priority areas such as the Digital Single Market, the Energy Union, financial services, industrial policy and the fight against tax avoidance and evasion. The Foreword to the Report by EU Competition Commissioner Margrethe Vestager, the full text and the accompanying staff working document are available here.
