The London Stock Exchange Group and Deutsche Boerse confirmed today they are in merger talks. If this merger succeeds, Deutsche Boerse and LSEG would own respectively 54.4% and 45.6% of the new mastodon. Our opinion is that the merger will be value-accretive for shareholders *once/if* it gets both shareholders and (above all) regulatory approval (souvenirs from the last merger attempt between DB and YSE-Euronext are still here).
