Company behind DigiD appeals takeover ban

Solvinity, the company responsible for the DigiD authentication system, is appealing a government decision to block its acquisition by the American firm Kyndryl. State Secretary Willemijn Aerdts prohibited the takeover last month citing concerns over digital sovereignty and national economic interests. The legal challenge was confirmed by a government spokesperson following initial reports by the NRC newspaper.
