The Polish Competition Authority (UOKiK) has issued Decision No DKK-189/2026 on September 1, 2026, approving the merger between MCNLST LLC, based in Wilmington, USA, and Thomson Reuters Holdco LLC, based in Toronto, Canada. This decision follows an antitrust investigation initiated at the request of the two companies.

The merger involves the creation of a joint venture, and the authority has stated that the decision fully meets the requests of the parties involved. As a result, there was no need for a detailed justification, as the decision does not resolve any disputed interests and was not made in response to an appeal.

According to the applicable laws, the parties have the right to appeal this decision to the District Court in Warsaw within one month of receiving the decision. An appeal will incur a fixed fee of 1,000 PLN, although the court may grant exemptions from court fees under certain conditions.
