El gobierno, gran perdedor en la batalla de Endesa

A juicio del Economist, “el gobierno español es el primer perdedor en la batalla de Endesa”.
Por estas razones: How not to block a takeover. Spain’s government is the big loser in the battle for Endesa. Apr 3rd 2007. The Economist.
[ .. ] Spain’s government comes out the worst in this tortuous saga. It supported a lower bid for Endesa by Gas Natural, a smaller Spanish energy firm, because it wanted to create a national energy champion and keep Endesa in Spanish hands. But Gas Natural dropped its bid a couple of months ago, E.ON will now enter the Spanish market, and Endesa’s European arm will be broken up. Moreover, the EU is taking legal action against Spain for breaking European takeover rules [ .. ] Manuel Conthe, boss of the CNMV, Spain’s stockmarket regulator, quit his job on April 2nd in protest at the government’s pressure on CNMV to scupper E.ON’s bid for Endesa. His authority was consistently undermined by other members of the regulator’s board who are close to the government. Mr Conthe will explain the reasons for his departure to the Spanish parliament’s economic commission next week. The government can expect an uncomfortable return from the holiday weekend.

Todavía no he conseguido enterarme de por qué una operación mercantil en este mundo tan liberal y demás es tan importante para los partidos políticos y sus cheers leaders mediáticas. ¿Tendrá algo que ver con la cosa de que ninguno tiene el menor interés en regular de un modo decente su financiación?
SI! Ni mas ni menos!
