Italian Debt Approaches 140 Percent Of GDP
Istat, the Corte dei Conti, and Banca d'Italia have confirmed Italy's failure to exit the EU infringement procedure. The national deficit stands at 3.1% of GDP. High public debt remains a primary concern, having grown to 137% of GDP last year with projections exceeding 100% for the current year. The Superbonus program is cited as a contributing factor to these fiscal issues. The Italian Chamber of Deputies acknowledged that the Superbonus scheme contributed to the 2025 deficit exceeding 3%. Officials noted that fundamental issues for Italian public accounts include high debt levels near 140 percent of GDP and low economic growth. The discussion occurred during a hearing on the budget document. The source characterized certain labor decrees as propaganda while wages and pensions decline due to inflation.
