The Mayor Roberto Gualtieri has he redeemed himself from criticism thanks to the help of one of the most important rating agencies? The question remains open, at least for the whole of 2024. The Jubilee is upon us and what his administration is implementing, if, on the one hand, makes many people turn up their noses, on the other, it does not have the same effect on those who deal business. Standard & Poor's awarded Rome the BBB rating with stable outlook. The city has a "healthy and diversified" economy thanks also to the financial support of the government - says the agency - which granted Gualtieri extraordinary powers. On waste management, for example. The Romans have a different opinion say other sources and a practical tour of the city. The queen test of Jubilee- for Gualtieri and the left - it will not cause debts and the city will improve, it is written. Prejubilee miracles? Everything is possible inUrbe, a place of political joys and sorrows.
Rome promoted by S&P
“In its analysis, S&P gave Rome an improvement rating that had been missing for years. We are very satisfied,” said the mayor. The accounts are in order, Metro C will be completed, public investments are going well and, above all, the waste-to-energy plant will be built. This is not enough to say that the city has turned or is turning. The analysts' abacus has calculated the numbers of certain operations and this is what rating agencies do all over the world. Consequently who must invest gets electrified. Everyday Rome, of citizens and neighborhoods, remains outside the algorithms. The politics of doing is often at odds with the accounts. Just choose and sometimes remember to Mario Draghi about good debt and bad debt. “We will continue our commitment to the relaunch of Rome with the utmost determination” explained Gualtieri. He has cashed in on the rating but must keep in mind how much the graphs and numbers do not correspond to reality. He has been playing his good political cards in recent months, projecting the left's capacity for good governance throughout Italy. Rome doesn't judge, it absolves him, he said Ennio Flaiano. It is not clear whether she is a virtue, but The mayor must be careful not to abuse.
