Chapter 11 in Bitcoin and Mobile Payments, 2016, pp 251-267 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract D’Alvia offers an updated overview of the main competition issues that currently affect the m-payment ecosystem through a case law analysis of two recent decisions upheld by the European Commission. M-payment solutions are still in their infancy and are the product of fast technological improvements. Hence, the chapter is aiming at the examination of preliminary operative aspects of joint ventures that are created by banks and mobile network operators in order to prevent the occurrence of possible anticompetitive effects of such cooperation in terms of vertical, horizontal and conglomerate merger effects.
