欧盟委员会周一表示，美国投资公司KKR（KKR.N）可能向其提供了不正确或误导性信息，涉及其最高达220亿欧元（247亿美元）收购Telecom Italia（TLIT.MI）固定线网络的交易。
The EU Commission on Monday said US investment firm KKR (KKR.N) might ​have provided it incorrect or ‌misleading information over its up to â‚Ź22 billion ($24.7 billion) acquisition of Telecom Italia's (TLIT.MI) fixed-line ​network.
委员会于2024年批准了该交易，但因其他运营商在2025年的投诉而在2025年启动调查。
The Commission approved the deal in ​2024, but opened an investigation following â complaints by other operators in 2025.
这些运营商认为，他们访问TIM固定宽带网络的价格在交易后被单方面上调，尽管KKR曾向委员会保证其不会拥有恶化批准接入条件的能力。
They ​argued that prices for them to ​access TIM's fixed broadband network had been unilaterally increased after the deal, even though ​KKR had convinced the Commission that ​it would not have the power to deteriorate ‌conditions â for wholesale access.
委员会称，新调查促使其初步认为，KKR“至少存在疏忽，提交了关于其现有长期批准接入协议条款的不正确和/或误导性信息，包括其现有条款将继续适用的事实。”委员会表示，它已将这些异议发送给KKR，KKR现在有机会作出回应。
The Commission said the new investigation had led to the preliminary view that KKR "at least ​negligently, submitted ​incorrect and/or â misleading information on the terms of its existing long-term ​agreements for wholesale access, including ​on â the fact that their existing terms would continue to apply." It said it â had ​sent these objections ​to KKR, which would now have the opportunity to ​respond.
