Merger control before the CNMC: key insights and lessons from 2024 and 2025
Merger control before the CNMC: key insights and lessons from 2024 and 2025
In recent years, the CNMC’s activity in merger control has intensified and become stricter, impacting both operations and the companies involved. The recent decision in Curium/IRAB marked the first prohibition of a transaction in Spain in 20 years, but it is only one of many deals that have been abandoned in recent years due to the regulator’s demands. During the webinar, we will discuss the current situation and its implications, focusing on: The CNMC’s high level of intervention. The increase in demanding and varied commitments and conditions. The CNMC’s close scrutiny and its consequences. And, of course, we will cover practical recommendations for preparing and submitting a notification to the CNMC in the current context. Don’t miss the opportunity to learn firsthand about the developments and lessons from 2024 and 2025 in merger control before the CNMC.
