As businesses pursue growth, cross‑border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are increasingly shaping the region’s investment landscape.
These transactions offer opportunities to expand market reach, enhance competitiveness and consolidate operations. Yet, they also raise competition concerns.

Transactions with effects in Kenya may now fall under the jurisdiction of the Competition Authority of Kenya (CAK), the East African Community Competition Authority (EACCA) and the Comesa Competition and Consumer Commission (CCCC).
