On 11 May 2001 the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to
1.
Article 4 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 4064/89 (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1310/97 (2),
by which the French undertaking Dexia CrØdit Local and the Spanish undertaking Banco de Sabadell SA
acquire, within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Regulation, joint control of Dexia Sabadell Banco
Local, by way of purchase of shares in Dexia Banco Local (belonging to the Dexia CrØdit Local group) by
Banco de Sabadell SA.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

(cid:151) Dexia CrØdit Local: banking linked to financing of public bodies,

(cid:151) Banco de Sabadell SA: banking,

(cid:151) Dexia Sabadell Banco Local: credit to public local institutions.

On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified concentration could fall within
the scope of Regulation (EEC) No 4064/89. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant
to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under
Regulation (EEC) No 4064/89 (3), it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under
