Fiat Chrysler Automobiles
(FCA) chief Sergio Marchionne said Monday FCA didn't need any
partners.
"We're on a par with others: if we need one, others too need
one. I don't need anyone, and I need everyone", the FCA CEO said
in Detroit.
"We had spoken of an abuse of capital, no one listened to us:
we took another road.
"We created an American and European reality: I no longer
need anyone," he said.
Marchionne was answering a question on the ideal
characteristics for a potential FCA partner.
Marchionne added that he did not know if it was possible to
reform the Italian tax system amid election-campaign proposals,
some of them similar to Donald Trump's reform.
"Italy is the third most indebted country in the world, so
before talking about tax reforms it's better first to see if we
can afford it," said the FCA CEO.
