Italy’s antitrust regulator fined Amazon.com Inc. $1.3 billion for harming competitors by favoring third-party sellers that use the U.S. company’s logistics services.
The fine of 1.13 billion euros comes as Amazon awaits the outcome of a similar investigation being carried out by the European Union. The EU last year separately filed antitrust charges against Amazon for allegedly using nonpublic data from third-party sellers to compete against them.
