Less than two weeks after Liberty Global chairman John Malone revealed that his company was still looking for a ‘common ground’ over an exchange or combination of assets with UK-based Vodafone Group, the latter has called time on talks.
Discussions between the two parties were officially confirmed in June 2015, however, Vodafone Group has today published a brief press release announcing simply that ‘discussions with Liberty Global have terminated’. No reason was given for the ending of the negotiations.
