LONDON – The U.K. government will look into the national security implications of U.S. group Nvidia’s purchase of British chip designer Arm Holdings, it said on Monday, putting a question mark over the $40 billion deal.
Digital minister Oliver Dowden said on Monday he had issued a so-called intervention notice over the sale of Arm by Japan’s SoftBank to Nvidia.
