Di Maio threatens the banks: fiscal tightening in sight

The squeeze on bank deductions and tax deductions threatened by Deputy Prime Minister Grillino scares not only credit institutions but also trade unions, who fear the negative effects on mortgages, savings and loans with a boomeang effect on the growth of the economy and on workers

Di Maio threatens the banks: fiscal tightening in sight

Fiscal tightening on deductions and tax deductions granted to banks to rake in the resources necessary to balance the shaky accounts of the budget maneuver. This is what threatens Deputy Prime Minister Luigi Di Maio who never gives up his gladatory tone when he addresses companies, whether industrial or financial, without going too far. Too bad that intentions are often contradicted by facts.

As already happened with the Di Maio decree on work, which was supposed to push companies to reduce fixed-term contracts and which instead risks causing tens of thousands more unemployed, even with regard to banks it is not possible to do everything grass a bundle. What does it mean to cut deductions and tax deductions? They are not always privileges but often they are measures concerning home loans or loans for families and businesses. Cutting indiscriminately would be a boomerang, pace of the statesman from Pomigliano, who seems to have a rough idea, to say the least, of how the market economy works and of the role that companies and banks play in it.

It's not just the bankers who are worried about Di Maio's impromptu and unilateral moves but even the trade unions. "I don't understand - says the leader of Fabi, Lando Simeoni - this continuous hunt for witches with respect to the banks", which he fears for the effect on contracts of the tightening overshadowed by the Five Stars.
