At least one American banker is
setting eyes on investment opportunities in Italy, Corriere
della Sera paper reported Thursday.
"Your country...has become an attractive market again,"
Bank of America CEO Brian T. Moynihan told the Milan-based paper
after a meeting with Premier Matteo Renzi at the World Economic
Forum being held in Davos, Switzerland.
"A strong dollar will help," the banker said.
"Prime Minister Renzi and I discussed ways to favor such
investments," said Moynihan, adding his bank will act as "global
coordinator" for the privatization of Italy's public post
office, Poste Italiane SpA.
Renzi's reforms "are what Italy needs to kick start (its
economy)," the banker went on.
"This is a positive signal for investors".
