英国完成440亿美元的维珍- o2移动合并交易
文/ Pushkala Aripaka, Paul Sandle

英国竞争监管机构批准了两家公司440亿美元的合并宽带公司 维珍媒体而且西班牙电话公司在经过长达数月的审查后，英国移动网络运营商O2于周四宣布收购。

维珍老板自由的全球而且西班牙电信两家公司在一年前达成了合并协议，缔造了一个宽带和移动领域的强国，与市场领导者英国电信(BT)一较高下。

“在仔细研究了这笔交易后，我们确信竞争将会持续下去移动通信供应商将保持强大，因此合并不太可能导致更高的价格或更低的服务质量，”该公司的马丁·科尔曼说竞争和市场管理局(CMA)说。

两家公司表示，这笔交易预计将于6月1日完成。O2和维珍传媒的估值分别为127亿英镑和187亿英镑，合并后的新集团包括债务在内的总价值为314亿英镑(合444亿美元)。

Liberty Global首席执行官Mike Fries和Telefonica首席执行官Jose Maria Alvarez-Pallete在CMA批准后的一份联合声明中表示:“这是英国电信历史上的一个分水岭，因为我们现在可以在英国蓬勃发展所需的光纤和5G上进行投资，给以前不存在的地方带来真正的选择。

双方表示，这家合资公司将由维珍传媒(Virgin Media)老板卢茨•舒勒(Lutz Schuler)领导，持股比例为50:50，年收入将达到110亿英镑。

鉴于两家公司都向其他运营商销售批发服务，CMA一直担心合并对移动市场可能产生的影响。

然而，在得出结论认为，英国电信(BT)和沃达丰(Vodafone)等在市场上提供竞争服务的其他参与者的存在，将维持竞争后，该公司上月暂时批准了这笔交易。

\"Britain<\/figure>By Pushkala Aripaka and Paul Sandle<\/strong>

Britain's competition regulator cleared a $44 billion merger between broadband company<\/a> Virgin Media<\/a> and Telefonica<\/a>'s UK mobile network O2 on Thursday, after a months-long review.

Virgin<\/a> owner Liberty Global<\/a> and Spain's Telefonica<\/a> agreed the merger a year ago, creating a powerhouse in broadband and mobile to take on market leader BT.

<\/div><\/div>\"After looking closely at the deal, we are reassured that competition amongst mobile communications<\/a> providers will remain strong and it is therefore unlikely that the merger would lead to higher prices or lower quality services,\" Martin Coleman of the Competition and Markets Authority<\/a> (CMA) said.

The companies said the deal, which values O2 at 12.7 billion pounds and Virgin Media at 18.7 billion pounds to give the new group a combined value of 31.4 billion pounds ($44.4 billion) including debt, is expected to close by June 1.

\"This is a watershed moment in the history of telecommunications in the UK as we are now cleared to bring real choice where it hasn't existed before, while investing in fibre and 5G that the UK needs to thrive,\" Liberty Global CEO Mike Fries and his Telefonica counterpart Jose Maria Alvarez-Pallete said in a joint statement following the CMA approval.

The 50:50 joint venture, which will be led by Virgin Media boss Lutz Schuler, will have 11 billion pounds of annual revenue, the two owners said.

The CMA had been concerned about the possible impact of the merger on the mobile market given that both companies sold wholesale services to other operators.

However it gave the deal provisional approval last month after concluding that the presence of other players in the market offering rival services, such as BT and Vodafone, would maintain competition.
