Italy finance minister Tria speaks in an interview with Il Sole 24
- Italy needs growth to gain market confidence
- Next budget must include fiscal reform
- Estimates 1.2% GDP growth in 2018, 1% to 1.1% in 2019
Once again, officials continue to repeat the same story. Budget discussions are set to take place later today; no set time as far as I can tell. Expect Italy's debt situation to garner more headlines in the coming months. But for now, just keep this in your back pocket.
