LONDON (S&P Global Ratings) Aug. 16, 2018--S&P Global Ratings said today that it is assessing the ratings impact on Atlantia SpA (BBB+/Stable/A-2) following the collapse of a section of the Genoa bridge in Italy. On Aug. 14, 2018, an estimated 80-meter (m) section of a 1,182m-long bridge in Genoa collapsed, causing fatalities and casualties. The bridge is part of the A10 toll road managed by Italian toll road operator Autostrade per L'Italia (ASPI), which is 88% owned by Atlantia. S&P Global Ratings believes that the bridge collapse could possibly have a negative effect on Atlantia's creditworthiness and that of its subsidiaries, ASPI and Aeroporti di Roma. We expect to publish a more detailed analysis of any impact on our credit
