Competition watchdog worries over USD$248 million sale of liquids terminals
Australia’s competition watchdog, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), has expressed competition fears over the acquisition of the wharf-side GrainCorp Liquid Terminals by independent bulk liquid storage company ANZ Terminals. The ACCC has formed a preliminary view that the potential sale would “substantially lessen competition”… and that’s the first step on the way to blocking the A$350 million (US$248 million) deal.
