Fiat’s CEO Presses Italy for Changes
Fiat SpA Chief Executive Sergio Marchionne urged Italian lawmakers to enact more business-friendly policies, once again waving the prospect that he might one day move the auto maker’s headquarters out of the country.
Mr. Marchionne, who also runs Chrysler Group LLC, caused a ruckus in Italy a couple of weeks ago when he suggested that Fiat might one day be headquartered in the U.S. The Italian government summoned the executive to meetings with several ministers, including Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.
Speaking before a parliamentary committee on Tuesday, Mr. Marchionne reiterated Fiat’s commitment to invest €20 billion ($27.03 billion) in Italy in coming years. But he suggested the heavy investment was against his better judgment.
