THE EU has approved, under its Merger Regulation, a joint venture between IBM and Maersk to develop and commercialise the blockchain digitisation system that underpins the value of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin.
IBM is active in the development, production, and marketing of information technology solutions, while Maersk is active in container shipping, terminal services.
The European Commission concluded that the proposed transaction would raise no competition concerns given the limited overlap between the joint venture's digitisation solution and the companies' activities, reported American Shipper.
The transaction was examined under the simplified merger review procedure. More information is available on the commission's competition website, in the public case register under the case number M.8742.
