CRA assisted Canal Digital/Telenor and Nordic Entertainment Group (NENT) in relation to the Phase 1 investigation concerning the creation of a new joint venture company combining the Parties’ satellite pay-TV and broadband-TV businesses in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark. CRA provided analysis in response to the EC’s concerns that the transaction might provide NENT with an incentive to foreclose rival Pay TV distributors from its channels or foreclose other channel providers from distribution via the joint venture platform.
