ROME (ITALPRESS) – “It is true that GDP growth is stifling, but countries in demographic decline are struggling to make GDP, and Italy is one of these countries. This is a very serious problem that we cannot sweep under the rug. Something we have done, we have to do more and as soon as the conditions are right we will do it.” So said Minister of Economy and Finance Giancarlo Giorgetti, speaking at Atreju, the Fratelli d’Italia event at Circo Massimo in Rome.Asked if the downward revision of GDP will change the maneuver, the minister said, “Absolutely not, we have made extremely prudent forecasts on public finance and this revision of GDP we estimate can reach 0.7. It does not change our public finance numbers, on the contrary, we are confident that we will get better results. We have remained among the few in the EU to do better than promised, and it is peculiar to find ourselves with us about to approve the budget and the French and Germans unable to do so. This makes Italy amaze in a positive way. “We need to focus on investment, this is the logic of the premium IRES. It says: if you entrepreneur made profits and, instead of distributing them, you keep them in the company and invest them or increase employment you have a discount on taxes. A seemingly simple mechanism that we managed to do, between Saturday and Sunday it will see the light of day. We worked and we got there. “I confirm the coverage of 400 million” for the premium Ires, “but this does not mean that the investments mobilized are 400 million, the will of the government is to reward investments. I invite people to evaluate this by adding it to Zes, to 4.0, to 5.0 which we hope will work even more,” he continued.
