The Philippine Competition Commission (PCC) focuses on promoting fair market competition and protecting consumer welfare in the Philippines. It aims to create an environment where businesses compete fairly, which can lead to lower prices, improved quality, and more choices for consumers.
The PCC advocates for the enforcement of the Philippine Competition Act, investigating anti-competitive practices such as cartels, abuse of dominant market position, and mergers that could substantially reduce competition. Additionally, it works on raising awareness about the benefits of competition policy, engaging with stakeholders, and supporting reforms that strengthen market competition.
