Italian term or phrase: ci siamo assunti le “liability”
Moretti ha detto che nella cessione di AnsaldoBreda e Ansaldo Sts alla giapponese Hitachi «Finmeccanica ha dato delle garanzie. Siccome la cessione è basata sul piano industriale che aveva fatto Ansaldo Sistemi, ci siamo assunti le “liability”, dando delle garanzie nel caso gli elementi di piano, in tre anni, non si realizzino. Altrimenti si tornava alla bad company, che non volevamo. Come dire: io garantisco, ma tu ti devi dare da fare».
