(ANSA) - New York, January 16 - International Monetary Fund
Chief Economist Maurice Obstfeld on Monday praised the
structural reforms passed by the government of ex-premier Matteo
Renzi as "very important". He also said that much remains to be
done in Italy, stressing that the approved reforms need to be
applied. Renzi quit as premier last month after his flagship
Constitutional reform was rejected in a referendum. Premier
Paolo Gentiloni's current executive is mostly made up of former
members of Renzi's cabinet.
