FTSE 100 publishing and events company Informa’s £3.9bn takeover of conference organiser UBM has today been confirmed by the UK’s competition watchdog.
The news rubber stamps the deal, which was 
agreed in January, and will create a UK leading business-to-business information service provider.
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) today said Informa’s takeover of its rival UBM did not qualify for an investigation.
