RNS Number : 1573M  Competition and Markets Authority  20 May 2022

Start of CMA Merger Investigation: ANTICIPATED ACQUISITION BY BOUYGUES S.A. OF
EQUANS S.A.S.

 

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is considering whether it is or
may be the case that this transaction, if carried into effect, will result 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 situation 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
20 May 2022 and has a deadline of 19 July 2022 for its phase 1 decision.

 

To assist it with this assessment, the CMA invites comments on the transaction
from any interested party.

These comments should be provided by the deadline set out above to:
