Lithuania’s Competition Council Authorises a Cross-Border Business Acquisition

On 23 October, the Competition Council authorised Blue Flight Workforce to acquire up to 85.4% of Biuro Baltic, with indirect control over employment and recruitment businesses across Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. The authority said its assessment found that the proposed merger would not create or strengthen a dominant position or significantly restrict competition in the relevant markets; no acquisition price was disclosed in the announcement.
