Yesterday, the Ambassador of Italy to the United States, H.E. Marco Peronaci, hosted a new meeting of the “Villa Firenze Talks” series dedicated to the Italian economy. The event “Focus Italy – economy, markets and reforms” featured the participation of the Director General of the Italian Treasury, Riccardo Barbieri Hermitte, the Deputy Governor of the Bank of Italy, Sergio Nicoletti Altimari, and the CEO of Borsa Italiana, Fabrizio Testa.
The conversation was moderated by Steve Clemons, Editor-at-Large of The Nation Interest, who was also winner of the Urbino Award in 2025.“The Italian economy has demonstrated extraordinary resilience: growth has been stable, fiscal consolidation has progressed with discipline and consistency, and international markets have responded with increasing confidence in Italian government bonds — a recognition of the Government’s constant commitment,” Ambassador Peronaci emphasized while opening the event.
