Prior notification of a concentration

(Case COMP/M.4875 — Deutsche Bank/Abbey Life)

Candidate case for simplified procedure

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2007/C 198/07)

1.
On 20 August 2007, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to
Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertakings Deutsche Bank AG
(‘Deutsche Bank’, Germany) acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation control
of the whole of the Abbey Life Group, namely Abbey Life Assurance Company Limited, Abbey Life Trustee
Services Limited and Abbey Life Services Limited (together ‘Abbey Life’, United Kingdom), currently owned
by Lloyds TSB Group Plc, by way of purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

— for Deutsche Bank: a global commercial bank,

— for Abbey Life: a closed life insurance business.

On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the
3.
scope of Regulation (EC) No 139/2004. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant to
the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under Council
Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the
procedure set out in the Notice.

4.
