Chalmers will argue the merger reforms will boost competition and productivity across the economy, delivering benefits direct to consumers and businesses. The ACCC will investigate any merger involving a large business with a turnover of more than $500 million buying a smaller business or assets with domestic turnover of more than $10 million.Any merger involving an Australian company with turnover across all its operations of more than $200 million, and either a business or assets of more than $50 million, or a global transaction value above $250 million, will also be reviewed.
