On 5 February, 2008, the European Commission cleared under the EU Merger Regulation the proposed creation of two new joint ventures in Poland (one for underwriting life assurance and one for underwriting general insurance) between the UK's Aviva insurance group and the Polish bank Bank Zachodni WBK S.A., controlled by the Allied Irish Banks group. The Commission concluded that the operation would not significantly impede effective competition in the European Economic Area (EEA) or in any substantial part of it.
