AMAG has a revenue per year of 4 billions CHF. So the fine is 1% of their revenue of 1 year for 12 years of illegal activity. I’m sure they learned their lesson.
Funny because me and my colleagues here in Ticino was talking about this one month ago:
When you go to buy an Audi and a seller makes a quotation for you, you can go to another and the value will be exactly the same
I noticed something similar a while back with groceries. I had gone to Aligro for a load of groceries, then checked the prices on the printed receipt against coop.ch. Strangely, everything was the same price (for items sold in identical packaging at both stores), to the cent.
I honestly always thought all these places fixed prices – not that I’m defending this practice at all
