According to UniverseToday.com, the answer you're looking for is:

"In their new paper, Alonso-Álvarez and his co-researchers show how dark matter allows SMBHs to merge despite the Final Parsec Problem. “We show that including the previously overlooked effect of dark matter can help supermassive black holes overcome this final parsec of separation and coalesce,” said Alonso-Álvarez."
