Cyfrowy Polsat’ Netia takeover under UOKiK scrutiny

The antitrust watchdog UOKiK has extended antimonopoly proceedings on the WSE-listed telecom group Cyfrowy Polsat takeover of another listed operator Netia. The case has been entered into the second phase of the proceedings, reserved for more complicated cases. UOKiK now can conduct, among others, market analysis. Back in December, following signing a deal to acquire a 32 percent stake in Netia, Polsat announced a  tender to increase its stake to 66 percent.
