Champions of the Fantastic League of mergers
La Unión Europea suaviza sus normas de competencia para fomentar la creación de 'campeones europeos'. Ante el empuje de EEUU y China, Bruselas busca facilitar megafusiones en sectores estratégicos. Leer
The European Union is considering new merger guidelines to help create "European champions" in strategic sectors, following a lag in economic growth compared to the US and China. A survey of over 30 banks, law firms, and executives identified potential merger partners, including Deutsche Telekom and Orange in telecommunications, Airbus and Saab in defense, and Iberdrola and Enel in energy.
The goal is to create larger companies that can compete globally, but national pride and security concerns may hinder such deals. The EU's new guidelines aim to facilitate mergers by considering factors such as scale, innovation, and resilience.
