Understanding The Emerging E.U./U.K. Approach to Tech Deals

Understanding The Emerging E.U./U.K. Approach to Tech Deals

Regulators are closely scrutinizing tech deals

Show notes

In this episode, we're looking at recent developments in regulatory approval for technology mergers in the U.K. and the E.U. We explore why the E.U. antitrust authorities blocked Booking Holdings' proposed EUR 1.63 billion purchase of Swedish peer ETraveli Group, why it matters and the potential impact it will have on other tech deals such as Amazon’s proposed USD 1.7 billion acquisition of iRobot.

Dealcast is presented by Mergermarket and SS&C Intralinks.
