The denial of the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine to allow Metinvest B. V. to purchase Dneprovsky By-Product Coke Plant is not final.
“Having analyzed the situation we provided the company with preliminary results where we see monopolization. This is not a denial – Metinvest can react to the preliminary results”, the committee chairman Yuri Terentiev said.
He noted that Metinvest could agree with some obligations, which removed the monopolization risks.
“If these obligations are efficient, the deal can be allowed”, Terentiev added.
Metinvest has a week or two to reply to the committee. (Ukrainian metal)
