Campari's controlling shareholder, Lagfin, announced today that it has regained full access to all approximately 214 million shares of the group that had been seized by the authorities.

The release of the shares follows an agreement reached this month between the Luxembourg-based holding company and the Italian Revenue Agency over alleged tax evasion, which stipulates a payment of €405 million to be made over four years.
