Brussels, 13 November 2026
The European Commission has approved, under the EU Merger Regulation, the acquisition of joint control of Eclairion Holding (‘Eclairion’) by Caisse des dépôts et consignations (‘CDC’), Human Performance Capital SAS (‘HPC’), all of France, and Davidson Kempner Capital Management LP (‘DK’) of the US.
The transaction relates primarily to the development and operation of data centres.
The Commission concluded that the notified transaction would not raise competition concerns, given the companies’ limited combined market position resulting from the proposed transaction. The notified transaction was examined under the simplified merger review procedure.
