The Competition Commission, in its meeting on 3 November 2023, considered 2 concentration notifications.
- Concentration obtained through the purchase of 41% of the shares of the company Italia Trasporto Aereo S.p.A. from Deutsche Lufthansa Aktiengesellschaft.
The notified transaction creates horizontal overlap in the air service market, but due to the small market share of the airlines Lufthansa and ITA, this concentration does not show signs of restricting competition in the market or in a part of it in particular, as a result of creating or strengthening a dominant position.
- Concentration obtained through the acquisition of control over Parque Eólico Litueche SpA from the undertaking Empresa Eléctrica Pilmaiquén S.A.
The notified concentrations do not create overlaps or vertical or horizontal relationships between the parties at the national level and for these reasons, will not bring any change or have an impact on the Albanian market.
For these reasons, the Competition Commission, by Decision no. 1029, dated 03.11.2023, decided to authorize the concentration obtained through the purchase of 41% of the shares of the company Italia Trasporto Aereo S.p.A. from Deutsche Lufthansa Aktiengesellschaft and by Decision no. 1030, dated 03.11.2023, decided to authorize the concentration obtained through the acquisition of control over Parque Eólico Litueche SpA from the undertaking Empresa Eléctrica Pilmaiquén S.A.
