64As regards the question of the existence of an economic unit, it is settled case-law that the competition law of the European Union covers the activities of undertakings and that the concept of an undertaking covers any entity engaged in an economic activity, regardless of its legal status and the way in which it is financed. The concept of an undertaking, in the same context, must be understood as designating an economic unit even if in law that economic unit consists of several persons, natural or legal (Case C-97/08 P Akzo Nobel and Others v Commission [2009] ECR I-8237, paragraphs 54 and 55 and the case-law cited).
