The Italian Competition Authority has implemented a web platform dedicated to businesses for completing and submitting applications and communications concerning Legality Rating.

WebRating is a tool that allows businesses to submit quickly and simply all data necessary to obtain the Legality Rating, as well as any corporate changes, in the interests of transparency and mutual cooperation.

The new system, which envisages the compilation of an online form, is directly accessible via the institutional portal www.agcm.it.

The new procedure offers numerous advantages:

• Simple, rapid and intuitive platform registration
• Option for companies to print a copy of the application form even before completion, in order to identify immediately the required information and declarations
• Rapid and guided compilation of every part of the application
• Option of saving the information entered and returning to complete the application later
• Automatic adaptation of the platform to the legal status and features of the company, with selective activation of the sections to be completed
• Flagging of compulsory information to prevent the submission of incomplete applications
• Applications submitted directly online
• Real time checking of application status, in the interests of full transparency
• Simplified requirements for Legality Rating holder companies, which can apply for Rating renewal or report significant changes by retrieving and updating the information already entered into the system.
