Have you ever made a $68.7 billion purchase and wanted to share the progress of the transaction with the world? No? Maybe this is just a scenario 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Microsoft’s head of gaming experiences. Amid 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:ಌMicrosoft’s purcꩵhase of Activision Blizzard, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Phil Spencer gave an interview to share the progre🐓ss being made and offer a glimpse behind-the-scenes at gaming’s biggest acquisitions.
In a soon-to-be broadcast interview with Emily Chang, Spencer shared his satisfaction with the progress being made in the re🙈gulation and examination of th✤e acquisition. After all, you can’t just throw billions at someone and call it a day. When absorbing an entire company, there are quite a number of hoops to jump through. One of the biggest of those hoops is an investigation by regulators looking out for potential antitrust issues.
It seems that so far, the regulators have little issue with the merger as Spencer had this to say about the acquisition’s progress: “I feel good about the progress that we've been making, but I go into the process supportive of people who maybe aren't as close to the gaming industry asking good, hard questions about ‘what is our intent? What does this mean? If you play it out over five years, is this ﷽constricting a market? Is it growing a market?”
While he sounds confident in the direction the deal is taking, he is quick to point out that his confidence does not hold t🌼hat much weight. After all, he has never made a multi-billion dollar purchase such as this before and is basing his opinion on how positive the discussions he has heard seem to be goi🐬ng.
That confidence may not be misplaced either. Earlier this week, Saudi Arabia became the first country to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:recognize and approve the Microsoft and Activision Bliꦫzzard merger. The regulator for the company, the General Authority for Competition, gave the okay for the deal to move for🐷ward in Saudi Arabia. To all intents, it seems likely the deal should have no issue going through.
