Prior notification of a concentration
(Case M.12004 – SALIC / OLAM AGRI)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
(C/2025/4648)


1.   
On 7 August 2025, the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1).
This notification concerns the following undertakings:






—


Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company (‘SALIC’, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia), which is ultimately controlled by the Public Investment Fund (‘PIF’, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia),










—


Olam Agri Holdings Limited (‘Olam Agri’, Singapore).




SALIC will acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation control of the whole of Olam Agri.
The concentration is accomplished by way of purchase of shares.


2.   
The business activities of the undertakings concerned are the following:






—


SALIC is an investment company with investments in companies active in the fields of agriculture and trading of food commodities,










—


Olam Agri mainly operates as a merchant and processor of agricultural goods and is active throughout the entire value chain (including farming, origination, marketing, processing, and distribution) across more than 30 countries.






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


4.   
The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed concentration to the Commission.
Observations must reach the Commission not later than 10 days following the date of this publication. The following reference should always be specified:
M.12004 – SALIC / OLAM AGRI

Question referred

Does Article 6(3) of the Habitats Directive (1) preclude a statutory scheme under which projects which do not require a permit, authorisation or licence but merely a declaration – such as limited groundwater extractions – are not subject to an obligation to prepare an appropriate assessment, even if those projects are likely to have a significant effect on the integrity of a special area of conservation?

Parties


Appellant: Baltic International Bank SE (represented by: M. Supe and V. Supe, advokāti)

The second ground of appeal, alleging that the General Court erred in law by failing to comply with the case-law cited in paragraph 63 of the judgment under appeal and in the judgment in Berlusconi (judgment of 19 December 2018, Berlusconi and Fininvest, C-219/17, EU:C:2018:1023).
The third ground of appeal, alleging that the General Court erred in law in paragraph 114 of the judgment under appeal by distorting the evidence supporting the second and third grounds for withdrawing the authorisation.
The fourth ground of appeal, alleging that the General Court erred in law by distorting the evidence supporting the assessment of the procedures and policies laid down in Article 342(1) and (2) of the Law on credit institutions.
The fifth ground of appeal, alleging that the General Court erred in law by misinterpreting Article 342(1) and (2) of the Law on credit institutions.
