Italy's Antitrust Authority
said Friday it has sanctioned nine top modeling agencies and
ASSEM modeling agency association a total of 4.5 million euros.
The authority said it found an anti-competitive agreement
in violation of EU anti-trust regulations between ASSEM and
Brave Models Srl, D'Management Group Srl, Elite Model Management
Srl, Enjoy Srl (presently in liquidation), Img Italy Srl, Major
Model Management Srl, Next Italy Srl, Why Not Srl, and Women
Models Spa.
Img Italy has adhered to the authority's leniency program
and is immune from sanctions.
