BEIJING -China’s central government has issued a series on opinions aimed at better cracking down on monopolies, unfair competition, and user data issues in China’s sprawling internet platform economy.
The National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) published a policy document on its website that called for the revision of legislation relating to monopolies and data security in data-driven online platforms, as well as stronger supervision over areas such as advertising and tax reporting.
“Platform operators must not use data, technology, market, or capital advantages to restrict the independent operation of other platforms and applications,” read one of nineteen opinions included in the document, which was jointly written with several other central government ministries and regulators.
The document, addressed to all local governments in the country, reaffirms Beijing’s commitment to rein in what it sees as the “disorderly expansion of capital” in the tech sector and the threats this poses to social stability, financial markets and national security.
“Clarify the boundaries of platform responsibility and strengthen the responsibility of super-large internet platforms,” read the document, adding that investment made in financial institutions by the companies running these platforms should be strictly regulated.
Other suggestions include greater transparency on how online platforms are run and a better supervision system for those that deal with cross-border data flows.
