Băncile italiene ar putea plăti până la 3 miliarde de euro în plus: Noua propunere provoacă tensiuni în guvernul Meloni
Italian banks may need to contribute up to 3 billion euros to support tax cuts and public spending in the 2027 budget. The League party proposed a 5% profit tax to generate funds for families and security measures. Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti argued that banks have benefited from reduced competition and high profits due to interest rate hikes by the ECB. However, the proposal faces opposition from coalition partner Forza Italia, which suggests alternative measures to strengthen public finances without raising taxes. Italy has already planned tax increases for banks and insurance companies in the 2026 budget.
