        Computational Antitrust Worldwide:

               Fourth Cross-Agency Report




               Thibault Schrepel* & Teodora Groza** (editors)




Abstract. This fourth-annual report distils insights from 25 antitrust agencies and
shows a shared, global move toward data-centered enforcement. Agencies highlight
three converging priorities: first, the deployment of AI and advanced analytics that
range from bid-rigging screens to graph neural networks to detect cartels, merger
risks and other infringements; second,investment in robust data infrastructure such
as web-scrape pipelines, procurement databases and secure e-discovery systems that
convert vast public and corporate datasets into reliable evidence; and third, deep
institutional change led by new digital units, open-source collaborations and
practitioner toolkits that embed computational methods in everyday competition
policy. Three key challenges stand out: the necessity of secure cloud computing, the
need  to ensure the explainability of deployed computational tools, and the
imperative to improve human-machine interaction.
