Financial stability risks in
Italy are down, the Bank of Italy said Friday.
But macroeconomic deterioration and persistent high debt
expose the country to tensions, it added.
The government should end uncertainty about budget safeguard
clauses which in recent years have raised fears that VAT might
be hiked, the central bank said.
Dispelling this uncertainty immediately would boost market
confidence, it said.
