There is no longer anything blocking the privatization of the Leipzig-based IT service provider Perdata. The German Federal Cartel office has approved the sale of the company to Arvato for 18.05 million euros.
This was confirmed by the Leipzig City Group (LVV) in response to a recent query. They also said that both sides have since contractually stipulated the issuing and acceptance of the offer. The purchase price has now also been remitted, meaning that ownership of the company, which is currently held by the state, can be transferred on March 1 as planned.
