According to a recent by the Commission, the Italian government has failed to take sufficient action against state debt.\u00a0In the past year, the debt had risen to 132.2% of the GDP and is expected to rise even higher. Under EU rules, no country is allowed to have a budget deficit larger than 3% of gross domestic product or debt above 60% of output. The fines Italy could expect in case of a full procedure would amount to 0.2% of the GDP.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Commission stated, that \u00abItaly\u2019s public debt remains a major source of vulnerability for the economy\u00bb. Acording to the report, the nations debt ratio will \u00abrise in both 2019 and 2020, up to over 135%, due to a large debt-increasing \u2018snowball\u2019 effect, a declining primary surplus, and underachieved privatization proceeds\u00bb. The Commission added, that \u00abwhile refinancing risks remain limited in the short term, the high public debt remains a source of vulnerability for Italy\u2019s economy\u00bb. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2019-06-05\/eu-triggers-italy-disciplinary-process-warns-of-debt-snowball?srnd=premium-europe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bloomberg<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"hardwall\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"softwall\"><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Italian debt has risen to 132.2% of the GDP in 2018.","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17553,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[106],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17617","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-noticias-es"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17617","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17617"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17617\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17618,"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17617\/revisions\/17618"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17553"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17617"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17617"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.debitos.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17617"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
