LONDON (Reuters) – Britain’s competition regulator has restated its provisional clearance of Amazon’s
Amazon led a $575 million fundraising in Deliveroo in May last year with what the two parties called “a minority investment”.

On Wednesday the CMA restated its provisional clearance – this time purely on competition grounds.
