The Competition Commission has launched a merger database, which is accessible through its website, for use by the public and researchers.

The database is aimed at advancing research within the competition law and economics fields.

The merger database contains details of about 3 440 assessed mergers spanning over a decade and is a culmination of a recently completed joint project between the commission and the World Bank. 

The data will not only help inform research by the commission and external researchers on the design of the legal and institutional framework for an effective competition policy in emerging markets but also allow the commission to increase its effectiveness on merger review. 

To date, the merger database has been used in projects including the well-known Concentration Tracker Report published in 2021 and many other research projects that are currently under way. 

The merger database contains mergers notified to and assessed by the commission between January 2011 to March 2021.
