| Policy-Constrained Competition is the market condition in which Qualified Nodes and Qualified Service Providers compete for governed work only when they satisfy the policy constraints that apply to the governed function, governed work assignment, Qualification Profile, Qualification Evidence, Non-Functional Characteristics, evidence obligations, jurisdictional constraints, residency constraints, sovereignty constraints, security obligations, service-level expectations, Cost Rules, and market integrity rules. | Policy-Constrained Competition is the market condition in which Qualified Nodes and Qualified Service Providers compete for governed work only when they satisfy the policy constraints that apply to the governed function, governed work assignment, Qualification Profile, Qualification Evidence, Non-Functional Characteristics, evidence obligations, jurisdictional constraints, residency constraints, sovereignty constraints, security obligations, service-level expectations, Cost Rules, and market integrity rules. |

| Policy-Constrained Competition establishes that cost, [[fxdemo:99_part_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:p:performance|performance]], availability, provider preference, or implementation preference does not override policy obligations, jurisdictional constraints, residency constraints, sovereignty constraints, evidence obligations, security obligations, or market integrity rules. | Policy-Constrained Competition establishes that cost, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:p:performance|performance]], availability, provider preference, or implementation preference does not override policy obligations, jurisdictional constraints, residency constraints, sovereignty constraints, evidence obligations, security obligations, or market integrity rules. |

| The market does not treat every lower-cost or higher-performing Node as a valid competitor. A Node competes for governed work only when it satisfies the required governed function, Qualification Profile, Qualification Evidence, Non-Functional Characteristics, policy constraints, evidence obligations, service-level expectations, and applicable Cost Rules. | The market does not treat every lower-cost or higher-performing Node as a valid competitor.

| Policy-Constrained Competition protects the market from [[fxdemo:99_part_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:u:under-compliance|Under-Compliance]]. A provider does not gain a valid competitive advantage by omitting required evidence, weakening controls, bypassing policy evaluation, ignoring residency constraints, reducing auditability, or performing work outside its recognised qualification. | Policy-Constrained Competition protects the market from [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:u:under-compliance|Under-Compliance]].

| Policy-Constrained Competition also supports fair participation. Large institutions, smaller providers, specialised providers, and jurisdiction-specific providers compete to satisfy the same governed-function obligations and market rules. | Policy-Constrained Competition also supports fair participation.
