No, FCA will not go home and will not rejoin the ranks of Confindustria. It was the CEO of FCA, Sergio Marchionne, who definitively clarified it yesterday during the first confrontation in Turin between the four candidates for president of the organization of Italian industrialists, namely Vacchi, Boccia, Bonometti and Regina.
FCA, which considers Confindustria little more than an outdated bandwagon, will remain as it does today only associated with local Confindustria structures with service contracts.
Marchionne's exit, which Confindustria at the time chaired by Emma Marcegaglia was wrong to let slip by not having grasped the extent of the competitive challenge that the Italian-Canadian manager intended to propose in the field of industrial relations and which he then won both in the USA both in the Italian FCA factories with the consent of Fim-Cisl and Uilm, displaces the candidates to succeed Giorgio Squinzi who had spent the most on the return of the Turin automotive group to Confindustria, namely Marco Bonometti and Aurelio Regina. But for the race for the leadership of Confindustria the games are all open and the very way of understanding relations with the unions will become a watershed.
