The Competition Council of Bosnia and Herzegovina, at its 32nd session held on 4 August 2025 in Sarajevo, considered materials in the field of competition law and policy, as well as the internal work and functioning of the Competition Council.

At the session, a decision was adopted permitting a concentration in the retail clothing and footwear market in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which will arise from the acquisition of joint control by the undertakings “Multiply Group PJSC” Abu Dhabi, UAE, “PAI Partners S.à.r.l.” Luxembourg and “Llano Holdings S.à.r.l.” Luxembourg, over the undertaking “Castellano Investments S.a.r.l.” Luxembourg.

The Conclusion rejected the Notification of Concentration of the undertaking “Dundee Precious Metals Inc” Toronto, Canada, due to the absence of an obligation to notify the concentration within the meaning of Article 14, paragraph (1) of the Law on Competition.

In accordance with the provisions of Article 25 of the Competition Act, the Competition Council considered the request of the undertaking “Society for the Management of the European Voluntary Pension Fund” a.d. Banja Luka for an opinion assessing whether there is an obligation to notify the intended concentration. After considering the submitted documentation and facts for the specific case, the Council took a position and issued an opinion.
