The European Commission published draft guidelines in late April 2026 that will replace two separate frameworks governing EU merger reviews for over two decades.

The consultation period runs until 26 June 2026. https://app.startupeuropeindia.net/news/the-european-commissions-new-merger-guidelines-what-has-changed-and-why-it-matters
