association Confindustria on Friday warned that the eurozone's
third-largest economy risks being embroiled in a credit crunch
for the third time in six years.''Italy is yet again in full credit emergency'', Confindustria's research unit said in a report. ''The risk is that Italy will suffer a third credit crunch after those of 2007-2009 and 2011-2012.
