Fiat Opportunities reported


• Diversifying and developing their product base to ensure lower GHG emissions products are available to meet consumption trends and comply with regulations


• Investment in research for greener technologies in the Automobile sector (e.g. electric cars, hybrid cars)


Risks reported


• Changing consumer behavior as more cities are implementing congestion charges which makes the car less attractive


• Changing fuel regulations and carbon taxes may lead to financial penalties and loss of demand for products


• New regulations for product labelling could increase the costs associated with producing consumer goods. Increased costs would result in lower margins on the product or the need to raise the retail price to match the cost increase. This may lead to reduced demand for these products


3


• Extreme weather patterns may damage supply chains and manufacturing plants. In addition, sourcing materials may become more difficult which may result in price rises and resource constraints
