Keeping up with merger control: comparing Turkey’s recent amendments with the EU Draft Merger Guidelines

This article examines the recent amendments to the Turkish merger control regime, namely the revisions to Communiqué No. 2010/4 and the accompanying merger control Guidelines and compares them with the European Commission’s Draft EU Merger Guidelines. While the Turkish reforms primarily aim to enhance legal certainty and predictability, the Draft EU Merger Guidelines propose a broader modernisation of substantive merger assessment to reflect developments in innovation, investment and competitive dynamics. Through this comparative analysis, the article highlights the practical implications of the Turkish reforms and considers their significance in the context of evolving merger control enforcement.
