The approval is one of the regulatory approvals needed for BBVA to complete its €12bn bid for Sabadell, "since TSB would become part of BBVA", the Spanish lender said in a statement.
BBVA added that it had received approval for the deal from authorities of several countries where Banco Sabadell has a presence, including the US, France, Portugal and Morocco.
