Deficit, between bonuses and interest on debt how many pitfalls hidden in Corriere.it accounts

The Italian deficit continues to grow but the country cannot afford it. the alarm launched by Ferruccio de Bortoli in his analysis on L’Economia on newsstands tomorrow for free with the Corriere della Sera. In Italy, the economy was better than expected in the first quarter. The growth forecasts at the end of the year (above 1%) are encouraging. But it would be risky if the Meloni government cultivated the idea of ​​opening unexpected tax treasures. Also because the slowdown is evident. But, beyond the perversion of the real cost of the bonuses (far from being perceived in his mortgage for the next few years) – recalls de Bortoli – what are the possible explanations for the sharp increase in requirements compared to the deficit? First of all, the third installment of the Pnrr (19 billion) is missing, while in April of last year 21 billion had already been paid by Brussels. At this rate, there is a risk of skipping, or postponing to next year, even the fourth, by 16 billion. All without forgetting that with the accounting of the various incentives, starting with the 110% for construction, and with the increase in public debt servicing (caused by the rise in interest rates) in just six months there will be over 8 billion more to budget. Here are all the numbers to keep under control to avoid nasty surprises.
