Trojan Economics is pleased to announce a significant milestone in merger control in Cyprus.

In collaboration with a leading law firm, we successfully supported the Phase I clearance of a concentration within just 25 days. This result is particularly noteworthy, as it was achieved without any requests for additional information (RFIs) or clarification from the competent authority.

Notably, this result was achieved without any requests for additional information (RFIs) or clarification from the competent authority, the Commission for the Protection of Competition (CPC).

Navigating Cyprus Merger Control Efficiency

In the current regulatory landscape, merger notifications in Cyprus frequently encounter procedural delays or extensive follow-up questions. Securing clearance in under a month highlights the strategic advantage of integrating robust economic input at the earliest stages of a transaction.

Our contribution to this success focused on three critical pillars:

  • Precise Market Definition: Establishing relevant markets grounded in rigorous economic reality to preempt authority concerns.
  • Evidence Alignment: Ensuring absolute consistency between quantitative data and qualitative evidence.
  • A Credible Economic Narrative: Developing a coherent case that facilitates the authority’s assessment and reduces informational friction.

Predictable Outcomes for Complex Transactions

A well-prepared filing does more than just meet legal requirements—it enhances the efficiency of the entire review process. By reducing “informational friction,” we provide our clients with faster, more predictable outcomes in cases where timing and deal certainty are critical.

Trojan Economics continues to be the partner of choice for law firms and corporate clients seeking expert economic support for merger clearance in Cyprus.

We would like to thank Koushos, Korfiotis, Papacharalambous LLC for their continued trust and successful collaboration on this matter
