89When such an economic entity infringes the competition rules, it falls, according to the principle of personal responsibility, to that entity to answer for that infringement. None the less, the infringement of EU competition law must be imputed unequivocally to a legal person on whom fines may be imposed and the statement of objections must be addressed to that person (see, to that effect, judgment in Akzo Nobel and Others v Commission, EU:C:2009:536, paragraphs 56 and 57 and the case-law cited).
