In the OSI model, flow control is primarily managed by the Transport layer (Layer 4). This layer ensures that data is transmitted at a rate that matches the receiving device's capability to process it, preventing overflow and data loss. It employs techniques such as buffering, windowing, and acknowledgment mechanisms to regulate the flow of data between sender and receiver.
