The European Commission has approved, under the EU Merger Regulation, the acquisition of sole control of Apollo Group (‘Apollo’) by Oaktree Capital Holdings LLC (‘Oaktree’), both from the US.

The transaction relates primarily to the market for the distribution of food and beverages.

The Commission concluded that the notified transaction would not raise competition concerns, given the companies’ limited market positions resulting from the proposed transaction. The notified transaction was examined under the simplified merger review procedure.
