China is considering boosting the status of its antitrust bureau within the market regulatory agency as it steps up a campaign against anti-competitive behaviour, two people familiar with the matter said.
The proposed new structure, details of which have not been reported before, would also bolster SAMR's in-house capability to conduct research that it has previously had to outsource, according to the people.
SAMR did not respond to a request for comment on the plans and Gan could not immediately be reached for comment.
