The gross result is positive for 490 million, an increase of 25% compared to 394 million in 2012. These are the numbers of the past year of Sace, an export guarantee company totally controlled by Cassa Depositi e Prestiti and included in the privatization package decided by the Government.
During 2013, Sace approved guarantees for 8,7 billion, of which 5,7 billion to support Italian exports. The figure is up by 18% compared to the previous year, despite the further slowdown in national exports and the volatility of emerging markets which accentuated in the second half of the year. The remaining three billion euros go to support business internationalization activities.
