The U.K. Competition and Markets Authority said Wednesday that
it won't be referring Microsoft Corp.'s planned acquisition of
Nuance Communications Inc. for a further Phase 2 review.
The regulator said on Jan. 12 that it had started a formal
investigation into the deal to see whether it would lessen
competition within U.K. markets.
On Dec. 21 the European Union's antitrust authority
unconditionally approved the deal, saying that it wouldn't
significantly reduce competition and wouldn't raise any
concerns.
The U.S. software giant said in April that it struck a deal to
buy transcription-technology company Nuance, valued at $19.7
billion including Nuance's net debt, in a bet on the growing demand
for digital tools within healthcare.
