D Correct answer
Explanation

Reebok was acquired by German sportswear company Adidas in 2006 for approximately $3.8 billion, making it a subsidiary. This acquisition was part of Adidas's strategy to compete with Nike in the global athletic footwear and apparel market. Benetton, Liberty, and Nike are incorrect - Nike is Adidas's main competitor, not its parent company.

AI explanation

Reebok was acquired by Adidas in 2006 and has operated as a subsidiary of the Adidas Group since then (it was later sold off in 2021, but at the time this fact was established Adidas was the parent). Nike, Liberty, and Benetton have no ownership relationship with Reebok.
