25/02/2014 (Agence Europe) - Mergers: BPCE/GIMV/Veolia Transport Belgium. On 24 February, the European Commission gave the go-ahead to the acquisition of Veolia Transport Belgium of Belgium, by European Transport Holding of Luxembourg and GIMV of Belgium. Veolia Transport Belgium provides services in the field of bus transport, including line traffic, school traffic, charter bus and personnel transportation. European Transport Holding is a subsidiary of the investment fund Cube Infrastructure Fund and its general partner belongs to the group Banques Populaires Caisses d'Epargne. GIMV is an investment company. The Commission concluded that the proposed acquisition would not raise competition concerns, in particular because European Transport Holding and GIMV do not have overlapping activities with Veolia Transport Belgium.
