The Competition Commission (CompCom) is a South Africa government agency and the country's anti-trust regulator. It has the power to block mergers and other transactions that would reduce competition.[1][2][3] It blocked a proposed acquisition of Burger King South Africa over a lack of Black ownership.[4]
