Microsoft's business software ecosystem will face a UK antitrust investigation starting in May to determine whether its licensing agreements for products such as Word, Excel, and the AI application Copilot require stricter regulation. The UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) announced on Tuesday that it will launch the investigation to decide whether to grant Microsoft its so-called strategic market position designation—a designation that would allow regulators to impose penalties and take measures to promote competition. Meanwhile, the CMA stated it will continue to work with Microsoft and Amazon Web Services (AWS) to encourage them to take steps to improve the competitive environment in the cloud services market.
