Law360 (April 19, 2018, 7:41 PM EDT) -- The executive chairman of Italian eyewear company Luxottica Group SpA expects its deal for Essilor International SA to get approval in China but with some “minor restrictions,” Reuters reported Thursday morning. According to the report, Leonardo Del Vecchio said Essilor is more likely to be affected by restrictions due to its size and expects the deal to complete in May. Both the European Commission and the Federal Trade Commission signed off on the deal last month.
