Bring back to Italy the companies that had relocated their organizational and industrial assets, with legislative initiatives and concessions, following the example of what the United States (where the Trump administration is using the tax lever), France and Great Britain (which for time incentives, tax exemption and bureaucratic simplification recur). This is the strategy suggested to the government by Forza Italia, with a motion presented to the Chamber by the entire group and which sees Mariastella Gelmini as the first signatory.
The phenomenon of "reshoring", the return of companies within the national territory, sees Italy among the protagonists. A recent survey by the Uni-club inter-university research group, which brings together the universities of L'Aquila, Catania, Udine, Bologna and Reggio Emilia, showed that from 2000 to 2015 out of over 700 cases observed, 121 concerned Italy, the first European country and the second in the world for the decision to return companies.
These are companies that for the most part had relocated to Asia or China (63%), in particular in the textile-clothing sector (24%), leather goods ((17%), electronics and the manufacture of electrical machines. The reason for the return?The most significant is that of the "made in" effect indicated by over 37% of the companies that returned, followed by the "improvement of customer relations" and the "poor quality of delocalized productions".
In the wake of these data and these analyses, and also on the example of what not only the United States, France and Great Britain are doing with legislative interventions, but also Italian regions such as Piedmont, Lombardy, Emilia Romagna, Abruzzo with strategies and trials, the motion presented to Montecitorio urges the government "to adopt every initiative, including legislation, aimed at encouraging the return of Italian companies that have relocated production outside national borders".
With a clarification: no discrimination against those who have never relocated and the phenomenon of restoring it should enjoy the same treatment as that reserved for the attraction of investments by foreign companies. In other words: Italian companies that decide to return after having relocated should be offered the same incentives and services that are made available to foreign entrepreneurial realities wishing to invest in Italy.
Legislative initiatives, therefore, also accompanied by the establishment of a fund at the CDP to be allocated to local authorities to build or redevelop sites suitable for industrialization, and refinancing of the subsidies provided for by the National Business Plan 4.0
A part of the resources needed for the promotion of restoring is identified in the possibility of using shares of the resources destined for the promotion of Made in Italy.
