Italian bourse company Borsa
Italiana CEO Raffaele Jerusalmi on Monday hailed a meeting with
Economy Minister Giovanni Tria in which mutual interests were
coverd.
After talks on institutional issues and Brexit, Jerusalmi
said "the government's interest towards the Bouse and its
sensitivity towards the Bourse are evident because they realise
perfectly that businesses are a fundamental part of the
country".
Jerusalmi underscored that "a Bourse that works well is in
the interest of all, so there is certainly a lot of attention on
that.
"Inside our group we have the MTS platform which handles the
Italian public debt and on that obviously there is always great
interest and great attention".
As for Brexit, the bourse CEO said "euro MTS will return to
Milan shortly. Since no one knows exactly what will happen with
Brexit, we'll see if there are other opportunities in the
future, but for the moment we have already brought something
home and that's not bad".
Jerusalmi added: "the process of privatisation is still in
course and potentially there are always interesting firms that
could arrive at a listing. We'll see what the government
decides".
