- Capital One said it intends to buy Discover in an all-stock transaction valued at $35 billion.
- Discover shareholders would receive Capital One shares valued at nearly $140; the Friday closing price was $110.49.
- Access to Discover’s payment network could strengthen Capital One’s competition with Visa and Mastercard; future usage remains unclear.
- Regulatory approval remains uncertain, while the National Community Reinvestment Coalition raised significant antitrust concerns.
The deal also poses massive anti-trust concerns, given the vertical integration of Capital One’s credit card lending with Discover’s credit card network.— Jesse Van Tol, president and CEO of the National Community Reinvestment Coalition, commenting on the deal’s antitrust implications
