LEONARDO LDOF.MI
Italian prosecutors accused seven people and two sub-contractors of crimes including fraud and breaching airplane safety rules following an investigation into suspected flawed parts produced by an Italian company for Boeing BA.N.

Rome aims to sell up to around 15% of the lender in an upcoming share placement, with the government's stake in the bailed-out bank falling to as low as 12%, two sources close to the matter told Reuters on Friday.
A deal with Monte dei Paschi is not part of Unipol's UNPI.MI strategy, Unipol UNPI.MI CEO Carlo Cimbri was quoted as saying by ANSA on Saturday.
