Nexi hereby announces that today the European Commission granted the clearance to the proposed merger between Nets and Nexi.
The antitrust clearance is unconditional and does not require any commitments from the parties.
Following the approval of the merger by Nexi’s shareholders’ meeting on 3 March 2021 and the completion of the sale of the Nets’ account-to-account business, the activities that will lead to the strategic combination of the two groups and the creation of one of Europe’s leading paytech companies, once the remaining authorisations provided under the existing agreements are obtained, are therefore continuing.
