Atlantia S.p.A. (formerly Autostrade S.p.A.) is an Italian holding company operating toll motorways and airports. Its primary asset is Autostrade per l'Italia, the largest concessionaire on the Italian autostrade network.[1] Another subsidiary of Atlantia, Autostrade of Virginia, is a member of the consortium that operates the Dulles Greenway.

On 14 August 2018, the highway bridge Ponte Morandi in Genoa managed by this group suffered a catastrophic collapse, causing the death of many. The Italian Government, in addition to possible penalties, is considering the possibility of removing the concessions of Italian motorways away from this group.[2]

Background

The firm is publicly traded on the Milan Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the FTSE MIB Index. Atlantia's largest single shareholder with around 38% of the company is Sintonia, an investment vehicle of the Benetton family.[3]

As of 2018 the group operates 5,000 km of toll motorways in Italy, Brazil, Chile, India and Poland, and manages airports in Italy and France.[4]

The subsidiary Autostrade International of Virginia O & M, Inc. was formed in 1993 to operate the Dulles Greenway in the U.S. state of Virginia.[5]

History

The company was founded in 2006 from the former company Autostrade S.p.A.[6]

In March 2018 Atlantia S.p.A bought 15& of GTlink for 1 billion Euro.[7]

A section of the company that controlled the Ponte Morandi bridge collapsed on 14 August 2018, causing the death of 43 people; Atlantia removed its company stand at the Communion and Liberation Meeting of Rimini on 15 August 2018.[8]
