Bonomi: "Public investments Yes, state boss No"

More public investments but not to the state that owns the economy: this is the message with which he presented himself yesterday Carlo Bonomi at the assembly of Confindustria who, with 99,9% of the votes, elected him online as the new president of the organization of Italian industrialists. Bonomi's, who will remain in office for four years, will be a different Confindustria from the one led by his predecessor, Vincenzo Boccia.

Bonomi's Confindustria will be industrialist, Nordic, anti-statist and very independent from politics, which is being asked for a breakthrough, but without any temptation to support this party or that. “We will have to say no and repeat it vigorously at 10, 100, 1000 Alitalia, because only companies and markets, investments and the balance of public finances can provide income and work for millions of Italians”, said the new president of Confindustria.

No to the State within businesses but yes to strong public investments to relaunch Italy. “We ask politics – Bonomi insisted – to double public investments, which it has cut over the years by preferring current spending, and which are needed more than ever in the field of infrastructure, transport, logistics, digitization and productivity of services, not only public, in schools, universities and healthcare".

According to the new president of Confindustria, Italy needs "a great alliance of public and private investments also to put the person, the family, the disabled, the elderly at the center of everything", with a strategic plan 2030-2050 which has the following priorities: investments for innovation and research, investments in human capital, environmental and social sustainability of companies. Without to forget new contractual forms that shift the center of gravity from national to corporate bargaining.
