June 26 (Reuters) - Nasdaq said on Wednesday it

has terminated its agreement to transfer its European power

trading and clearing business to the European Energy Exchange

(EEX).

Nasdaq will continue to operate its Nordic power trading and

clearing business, the U.S. exchange operator said in a

statement.

The deal, which was announced last year, risked a full-scale

investigation by EU antitrust regulators, Reuters reported

earlier this month.
