Golden Share, fears in the Senate: the CDP does not become the IRI

At Palazzo Madama the hypothesis of a cross-cutting agenda is making its way to limit the role of Cassa depositi e prestiti – Baldassarri: "It has been left ample scope for action".

Golden Share, fears in the Senate: the CDP does not become the IRI

The appointment for the definitive yes to the decree on the golden share is next Wednesday in the Senate Chamber. But in the meantime, among the senators there are those who fear a return to a sort of IRI, fears that focus on the possibility that the Deposits and Loans Fund could acquire equity investments in important companies of national interest. Hence the intention to develop a bipartisan agenda that commits the government to reviewing, limiting it, the role of Cassa depositi e prestiti.

Among those who fear the reissue of the old IRI is the president of the Finance commission of Palazzo Madama, Mario Baldassarri, who underlines the breadth of the field of action left to the CDP, which "can be extremely dangerous - he explains - to recreate a new IRI. It remains to be seen whether the Government is ready to implement a binding odg to enact rules in a short time".

And from the government - through the Minister for EU Policies, Enzo Moavero Milanesi, who spoke in the commission, where the question was raised - a clarification has already arrived: the rules of the decree on the golden share are parallel and cannot be superimposed on those relating to the CDP which would operate "in a condition of full equality with the other market players".
