Italy still has a big challenge in
terms of sorting out its public finances even though the
country's economic recovery is less fragile than previously, the
Audit Court said on Wednesday. "Despite the initial uncertainty,
the performance of the Italian economy seems to have changed
direction towards a less fragile, more qualitative expansion,"
read the State auditor's 2017 report on public finances. It said
restoring public finances to health was "harder" for Italy than
other European countries. It added that, nevertheless, it was
"necessary given the high debt level".
