Portuguese Competition Authority Clears Merger 71/2025

The Portuguese competition authority, known as AdC, has made a significant ruling regarding merger 71/2025 involving TEAK BV, TEAK S.A., Semani Yorgancilar, Gülfem Perçin, and Vórtex Yorglass.

 On September 17, 2025, the Board of Directors of the AdC exercised its authority under the relevant statutes to approve a decision of non-applicability. This decision indicates that the merger does not fall under the obligation of prior notification as outlined in the competition law.

 This ruling is based on the assessment that the concentration operation does not meet the criteria that would necessitate a formal notification process, thereby streamlining the merger process for the involved parties.
