The merger with Sunrise Communications AG was prohibited by the Swiss competition authority Weko in April 2010.[7] Salt began as the Swiss subsidiary of Orange S.A. Later, in 2012, it was sold to the British investment company, Apax Partners.[8] It continued to license and operate under the Orange name until 2015, when the company was sold by Apax Partners to NJJ Capital of Xavier Niel and the Salt brand launched.[9]
