    On 23 June 2017, the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which Europe Terminal NV (‘ET’, Switzerland) a wholly-owned subsidiary of Terminal Investment Limited Sàrl (‘TIL’, Switzerland) and Kranji (Netherlands) Investments BV (‘Kranji’, Netherlands) a holding company controlled by PSA International Pte Ltd (‘PSA’, Singapore) acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation joint control over PSA DGD NV (‘PSA DGD’, Belgium) by way of purchase of shares.
