The Path to Digital Autonomy - More Control Over Digital Dependencies
ACM, AFM, AP, DNB, and RDI jointly issue a position paper urging coordinated action to reduce strategic dependencies on non-European IT providers and enhance the resilience of European digital infrastructure. The regulators recommend that governments act as launching customers for European services, integrate digital autonomy into procurement criteria, and establish legal requirements for European fallbacks in vital processes. Organizations are advised to mitigate vendor lock-in through open standards, interoperability, and joint sectoral purchasing to foster a competitive and sovereign European digital ecosystem.
