Mondadori on Tuesday launched a
capital hike worth 6% of its ordinary shares, saying it would
place the same amount of shares on the market.
Italy's biggest publisher, part of ex-premier Silvio
Berlusconi's media empire, said the IPO was aimed at
"strengthening its financial structure".
As well as being a top book publisher, Mondadori owns
mass-circulation newsweekly Panorama and several glossy and
gossip mags including Chi.
