As part of the transaction, Evri Limited (EVRi) (currently owned by funds managed by Apollo Capital Management L.P.) will acquire DHL eCommerce UK Limited (DHL eCommerce UK) from Deutsche Post AG (DHL Group) and DHL Group will acquire a minority stake in EVRi. The CMA is issuing this preliminary 'invitation to comment' to allow interested parties to submit to the CMA any initial views on the impact that the transaction could have on competition in the UK. The CMA has not yet launched its formal investigation into this transaction. This invitation to comment is the first part of the CMA's information-gathering process. Written representations about any competition issues should be provided by the deadline set out above.
