BRUSSELS -- The European Commission said it has extended the deadline for its inquiry into Continental AG's proposed $16 billion acquisition of Siemens AG's automotive electronics unit, VDO, to Nov. 29.
The original deadline was Nov. 15. The commission extends inquiries by 10 working days in cases where a national competition authority has asked for jurisdiction, or where the companies have offered remedies to competition concerns raised during the investigation.
