RNS Number : 5787Z  Competition and Markets Authority  08 August 2024

Start of CMA Merger Investigation: Amazon/Anthropic

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is considering whether this
transaction has resulted in the creation of a relevant merger situation under
the merger provisions of the Enterprise Act 2002 and, if so, whether the
creation of that merger may be expected to result in a substantial lessening
of competition within any market or markets in the United Kingdom for goods or
services.

The CMA announced the launch of its merger inquiry by notice to the Parties on
8 August 2024 and has a deadline of 4 October 2024 for its phase 1 decision.
