E.U./U.K. Regulatory View on Telco Consolidation

Will the CMA block the latest deal?

Show notes

Mergers of mobile phone firms have always been a hot topic when it comes to obtaining antitrust approval, and the recent deal to combine the U.K. operations of Vodafone and CK Hutchison — which owns the 3 (Three) network — is no different. We hear more about the European Commission’s approach to telecommunications M&A with our guest Jacob Parry, a Brussels-based chief regulatory correspondent for PaRR and DealReporter.

Dealcast is presented by Mergermarket and SS&C Intralinks.
