Siemens aiming for early EU approval for Gamesa deal: sources

The company is aiming for a phase one decision, the people said, referring to the European Commission's initial scrutiny which runs to March 13.

The companies have few overlaps which could trigger competition concerns, the sources said. In terms of geographical presence and products, the companies complement rather than compete with each other, they said.

The sources said it was speculative to say whether concessions would be required to allay possible competition concerns.
