The UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is considering proposals from Brink's aimed at addressing concerns about reduced competition stemming from the company's acquisition of NCR, which operates in the ATM and payment services market. The regulator previously expressed concern that the deal could negatively impact competition in the ATM servicing sector, potentially affecting customer terms and service quality. In response to these concerns, Brink's has put forward a series of remedial measures that, according to the company, should address the regulator's objections without requiring a full-scale investigation of the deal. The CMA is examining the proposed measures and may accept them if it considers them sufficient to eliminate competition risks. If the regulator approves these measures, the deal could be completed without further delays associated with a more thorough review. Otherwise, the CMA may move to a second phase investigation, which would require additional time and more detailed analysis of potential market consequences. The regulator's decision will be significant for the entire sector, as the ATM servicing and payment infrastructure market has undergone consolidation in recent years against the backdrop of declining demand for cash transactions and growing digital payments.
