Show notes

(ES) En este cuarto capítulo de 2026, Carlos Fardella, director de análisis empírico y academia de FK Economics, aborda los mercados digitales y el poder de mercado. Exploramos las características que distinguen a estos mercados de los tradicionales —los efectos de red, las economías de escala, el rol de los datos y las plataformas multicanales— y por qué estas dinámicas tienden a generar estructuras altamente concentradas. Analizamos también los desafíos que esto plantea para el derecho de la libre competencia: ¿cuándo la dominancia refleja simplemente eficiencia e innovación, y cuándo se convierte en un riesgo real para la competencia?


(EN) In this fourth episode of 2026, Carlos Fardella, Director of Empirical Analysis and Academia at FK Economics, explores digital markets and market power. We examine the features that set these markets apart from traditional ones —network effects, economies of scale, the role of data, and multi-sided platforms— and why these dynamics tend to produce highly concentrated market structures. We also analyze the challenges this raises for competition law: when does dominance simply reflect efficiency and innovation, and when does it become a genuine threat to fair competition?
