Roche, LumiraDx Deal Probed by U.K. Competition Watchdog

By Michael Susin

 

The U.K. Competition and Markets Authority said it launched a merger inquiry regarding whether a deal for Roche Holding to buy certain companies linked to LumiraDx's point-of-care technology could hurt competition in the country.

The CMA said Friday that it has until July 19 to reach a phase one decision.

Both companies weren't immediately available for comments.
