The deal will be completed after the stock market closes on Aug. 31, the companies said in a statement e Friday. Shares of DowDuPont Inc. will begin trading Sept 1. Dow and DuPonte recently cleared the final major hurdle in their proposed $130 billion merger by winning U.S. anti-trust approval. This approval is contingent on DuPont selling part of its herbicide/insecticide business, and Dow selling its plastics packaging business. When the merger was first proposed, anti-trust approval was under doubt as it was clear that the combined entity will have a very strong market position. This attracted strong scrutiny from U.S. and EU regulators, resulting in numerous deadline suspensions. However, Dow, DuPont, and major regulators around the world appear to have reached a general understanding. In order to get the approval of the European Union, Dupont stroked a $1.6 billion asset swap with pesticide maker FMC Corp, whereby FMC agreed to buy Dupont crop protection assets and Dupont will acquire FMC's health and nutrition business. Why did US and EU regulators have to approve the merger of Dow Chemical and Dupont? Because the company will operate in US and Europe.
