Prior notification of a concentration

(Case COMP/M.2934 — Prudential Financial/Sal. Oppenheim)

Candidate case for simplified procedure

(2002/C 198/03)

(Text with EEA relevance)

On 13 August 2002 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 American undertaking Prudential Financial Inc. (Prudential Financial) and the German under-
taking Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie. KGaA (Oppenheim) acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of that
Regulation joint control of the undertaking Oppenheim Fonds Trust GmbH (Oppenheim Fonds) by way of
purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

— Prudential Financial: supply of

insurance,

investment management, securities and other financial

products and services to retail and institutional customers,

— Oppenheim: private banking, asset management,

investment banking, risk management,

financial

research services,

— Oppenheim Fonds: management, marketing and wholesale distribution of retail fund products.

3.
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 Regu-
lation (EEC) No 4064/89 (3),
it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the
procedure set out in the notice.

correcting the English language version of Regulation (EC) No 1332/2002 opening the procedure
for the allocation of export licences for cheeses to be exported in 2003 to the United States of
America under certain quotas resulting from the GATT Agreements

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17
May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk
and milk products (1), as last amended by Commission Regula-
tion (EC) No 509/2002 (2), and in particular Article 30 thereof,

Whereas:

Article 20 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 174/1999 of 26
January 1999 laying down special detailed rules for the applica-
tion of Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 as regards export
licences and export refunds in the case of milk and milk
products (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1368/
2002 (4), provides that export licences for cheese exported to
the United States of America as part of the quotas under the
Agreements concluded during multilateral trade negotiations,
may be allocated according to a special procedure by which
preferred importers in the United States of America may be
designated. Article 2 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1332/
2002 (5) fixes the period wherein the applications for provi-
sional licences shall be lodged with the competent authorities.

As the period mentioned in the English language version differs
from the texts in the other official Community languages, the
necessary correction should therefore be made to that language
version,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

In Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1332/2002, paragraph 1 is
replaced by the following:

‘1.
Applications for provisional licences shall be lodged
with the competent authorities from 2 to 11 September
2002 at the latest. They shall not be admissible unless they
contain all the details referred to in Article 20(2) of Regula-
tion (EC) No 174/1999 and the documents mentioned
therein.’

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its
publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
