Italy’s response to Covid-19 and the future for structural change
Speaker: Riccardo Barbieri, Director General, Ministry of Economy and Finance Italy
Along with other European governments, Italy has brought in a plethora of emergency fiscal measures to help combat the health risks and economic fallout from coronavirus. However, questions remain as to whether these measures go far enough and how Italy will handle the potential long-term implications of the crisis. Topics for discussion include Rome’s position in mitigating a potential recession, addressing structural challenges that the Italian economy and industry face, and ensuring continued investment into the country.
