Italy: Unraveling The Italian Economy

Italy is the 4rd largest economy in Europe. Italian economy is also the 8th largest economy in the world by GDP.
The Economy of Germany: • Economy of Germany: Un...
The Economy of France: • Economy of France, Dig...
The Economy of United Kingdom: • Economy of United King...
Talking about the country’s romanticized image with pasta, pizza and operas remains acceptable, but talk about the country’s image with fast trains, and everyone pulls back and considers it not much “Italian”. The truth is that Italy was painted in the corner as a basket case and a backward European member while that's not the case. Italy is the tenth biggest exporting nation and a leading economy in many sectors including machinery, vehicles, pharmaceuticals, precious metals, clothing, and accessories, etc. With nearly 60 percent of its trade with the European Union, Italy is the second-biggest manufacturing country in Europe fueled by small to medium-sized enterprises.
The video also discusses Marshall plan by United States, European Common Market, “Hot Autumn”, a series of strikes from 1969 to 1970, and “Years of Lead”. It also discusses Euro Convergence Criteria of 90s, Red Tape and recession, and 2008 financial crisis's impact on the Italian economy followed by Euro-Zone Debt Crisis and another recession.
The video also highlights Political instability, large coalitions and corruption in the government sector. We have also mentioned the debt to GDP ratio, government spending, pension system of the country, baby pensioners, impact of Euro replacing Lira compared to Netherlands and Germany, and Italy's idea of parallel currency.
The video also depicts labour laws and employers protection as well as youth unemployment in the country along with cultural inclinations like living long with parents impacting economic decisions. Other factors include highest older population with low fertility rates.
Italian economy also suffers from the inequality between the southern and northern regions.
The video also discusses Italy's prestigious automotive industry with car brands like Ferrari, Maserati, Lamborghini, Alfa Romeo, and Ducati bikes
Last, we discussed the travel and tourism industry of Italy including mentions of From Rome’s Colosseum to Florence’s Duomo Santa Maria del Fiore, From Milan’s Duomo to the Grand Canal of Venice, From Leaning Tower of Pisa to Lake Como.

We spend a lot on pensions because there was a period of time in the 80s and early 90s when state employees (teachers, government officials, bureaucracy staff, railway and police higher-ups) could retire very early. There's quite a number of people in their 60s and 70s who have been retired for 30-40 years after working for half of that. And they criticize young people because "Youngsters today don't want to work".

[@ssr6036]

Also, Italy has one of the oldest populations in the world. About 16 million people are retirement age and over. Also, yes young people (i am one) should be criticized they are a bunch of morons, for the most part.

[@stefamart7]

Also you have to consider that we generally have some really high pensions (except for some cases where some old people don't get enough to live and that's caused by a really bad distribution) and we still go in pension quite early (only the so much hated law Fornero did something good, but then most of the politicians (who recieve votes from the oldest parts of the population because they are way more than us youngsters) decided that Quota 100 was good and spending even more on pensions was good.

But the other massive problem older folk don't want to pay taxes. Why ? There are too many!

The problem is the government, the politics in Italy are extremely ineffective due to divisions and just endless red tape. The whole government system is broken, it can’t operate properly and get stuff done, in essence everyone is working with their hands tied behind their backs, they are all working against each other instead of for the country. As is mentioned in the video, literally a new leader every year which speaks volumes regarding the state of the government system in Italy. As an Italian, it’s a crying shame because it’s a beautiful country, with still lots to offer that is slowly ruining itself from within.

[@sergpie]

@@dia6olo34 At the national level, this is very much true. Though it should be of note what local municipalities have been able to accomplish in spite of covid, high debt, and bureaucracy; even Naples has been on a metro-building spree that has surprisingly been on time and not scandalized by anything ( 🤞 ). I’m not necessarily pro EU, but if it is to remain implemented, economic integration (as aforementioned), would ultimately be best for the union at large; despite it being at the cost of members like Germany, Ireland, or the Netherlands.

To add something, Italy is one of the countries with the highest private saving rates in the world. Italian private saving is 2 times bigger than the public debt! But this leads to another problem with the italian economy. Italians tend to save A LOT. They don't spend that much, prefer saving for the future, so privately italians are wealthy but the state is poor.

[@AB-ud3in]

The job market in Italy truly benefits no one. Wages can sometimes be so low that it is more lucrative for people to just not work and live on older family members’ pentions. There is no minimum wage, taxes are high, unemployment money is often given unfairly. On the other hand as you said, employees have to be extremely careful about who they hire, since it’s very hard to fire people. This vicious cycle creates a sense of hopelessness and stagnation that I have yet to experience in any other developed country.

As an Italian i feell the day that we will have a reliable and transparent public service I think trust among Italian consumers will finally rise and an economic boom created by internal demand will occur.

[@MultiTheflyer]

Very well done! I am in italian and hold a degree in economics and I must say this was pretty spot on. There are only a few comments that I would like to add: - The fact that people move out relatively late is not just due to cultural reasons. Cities and industrial areas where it's generally easier to find a job are relatively pricy on a real estate standpoint while the salaries are low. For example, a very lucky young graduate (I'm talking master's degree etc), will make approximately 1400 eur per month as salary, while the rent for an apartment in Milan is at least 800 eur (living on your own far from the center). If you compare the figures for an average German graduate in Berlin, which makes more than 2000 eur and has cheaper rent as far as I understand, I'm sure the message is clear. Obviously, this is not the same throughout the whole country but I'm willing to bet that we have one the highest rent/salary ratios in the world. I would argue that one of the reasons is that, because of the many regulations, it's very difficult (and costly) to build a house from scratch and therefore offer in the real estate market is not very flexible. That is because there are so many cultural preservation and environmental regulations that you can't even imagine. Plus it takes ages to get permits depending on where you are. For example, I was recently trying to install a roof window in an old farmhouse/apartment in the middle of nowhere. I had to ask for an authorization that was eventually rejected (after 6 months) because the building is in an area of "historical importance". I can assure you, it's a piece of crap farmhouse in the middle of the f***** nowhere. And that's for a roof window. Imagine building a whole house. - Another reason why our economy is so ineffective is the extremely slow and ineffective rule of law. Businesses don't want to wait 5 years to see their disputes settled. Sometimes they won't even invest in the country because of it. It is a real issue especially in times of crises. E.G. : company A does not pay company B. Company B cannot wait 5 years for the ruling to get it, it will therefore either sell its credit to a bank for a big discount or go bankrupt because it need the money right now. - You are right, entrepreneurship is not very much encouraged in the country. Culturally we tend to prefer safer jobs. A testament to this is the fact that our startup ecosystem it's basically non existant compared to other european countries. You could argue that we don't have entrepreneurs/startups because we don't have an ecosystem, it probably goes both ways. However, our culture does not really encourage risk taking and I bet any italian I know would say that his or her family would tell him that he was mad if he expressed the wish of starting a company from scratch instead of getting hired somewhere. - We have a serious skill mismatch problems. 10% of the population is unemployed, nevertheless companies cannot find the profiles that they want to hire. That's because unemployed people are generally low skilled while companies require things like engineers and data scientists. Data scientists and engineers tend to leave the country and go live somewhere where they can earn significantly higher salaries like Germany or Switzerland. I could probably go on for an hour or so, hopefully whatever I wrote was interesting to someone, Cheers

[@EconomicRaven]

thank you watching and for the insights 🙏

[@zampy15021993]

If i may add extra info FYI: - Even if regulation weren't a problem you would still not be able to build a house since you most likely need a mortgage, you can't get a mortgage without an indetermined contract. It's almost impossible to get that kind of contract before 35 yo. - To worsen the skill gap there is also the fact that they pay is generally shit compared to other EU countries, for any job including high skill jobs. I have a friend that has a master degree on automation technology and after 3 year working in the same place his base salary is 1300€ (net), same story for other engineers i know. If you don't mind leaving the country that's what you do since you probably end up with at least the double + benefits. - One highly overlooked thing is that in 1993 they removed the "scala mobile" on salaries. Basically it was the inflation adjustment on the base salary of employees. Since then the base salary depends on "national contracts" that are different depending on which category you work. These contracts are reworked to increase the base salary sometimes. Needless to say that none of them kept up with inflation. CPI 1993-2001 is up from 60 to 104, that's 70+% increase. My mother worked the same job in the same place for all her life, retired last year, she didn't get 70% increase even including the increase you get because of seniority (the amount of years you worked)

The fact that Italians leave the family around 25-30 years is related to the cost of life. Here in Italy when you get your graduation for the first 2/3 years you can change many jobs that the most of the time give you from 600 to 900€ per month and if you consider that a rent costs 600€ or more, if you live in cities like Milano, Roma, etc. a young man/women can't afford to live their lives so is better to live with your parents and divide all the expenses for these two or three years and when you find a better job or you get a promotion than most of the Italians move out. I'm one of these Italian and it's not related to the union we have with our families it's only a matter of how are we going to live with only 600€ per month. I find the rest of the video very interesting and mostly very specific and I can see or better hear that you have studied what Italy is capable and what really makes this country the third economic country in Europe. Thank you for not saying that we are just pizza, mandolino and Mafia. Italy has a lot to offer and I think most of the people just by searching on the internet can see what we really can do and what we made, but as you say we lost most of our hope in the politicians and institutions for the most diverse reasons, but I can see in my generation (20-25 years old) that we want to change in a better way our prospective and change this country in better in every aspect

[@Requiemes]

I'd say it's both. Culturally there is very little effort from the parents, generally, to make their children leave the house once they're out of school. This is reflected in many other aspects of life such as marriage and having children (which, of course, is also worsened by the economic crisis like you said). There are many countries where the cost of living is much higher and yet the families fully try their best to make the children independent as soon as possible. This doesn't happen in Italy, especially in the south, unless they're forced for education reasons, but even that is just limited during university (while in other countries this can happen even before).

In my experience the greatest issue in Italy is taxes and bureaucracy. I once wanted to open a business with my uni friends. The state expect you to pay a ridiculously high amount of taxes BEFORE you even generate any profit. Not to mention its impossible to hire due to the overcomplicated requirements. Despite its young population tending to be very creative, banks and financial institutions are overly conservative and don't really understand much about innovation and as a result, startups often have to migrate abroad. It does not help that politics is either ruled by ex communists converted to bankers on the left and racist criminals on the right.

I do not think that joining the euro was a bad idea, it’s the opposite. In 20 years Italy saved 700 billion euros in terms of less interest on the debt, the problem was and will ever be its political class; joining a currency union requires strong reforms and a change from a public spending and inflationary mode to a more open and stable system, a change that Italy didn’t take because it’s not politically feasible. The biggest economic problem of Italy, in my opinion, is not in its economy but in its political class, a class that, after the government of Super Mario Draghi, will strike again in its poor competence and blind view of the future.

The usual in arg but you really have to understand that if we were to pay every tax we really couldn't pay for essential stuff.

So if you have so many people in the dark it is a symptom, not the cause. Bc at the end of the day it is easier and safer to do bussiness if you are clean. I get mad writting about it haha but here somtimes they decide you have retroactive tax increases, stupid laws that are implemented and changed as fast as they can think of them, all the limitations on the usd, etc. And ofc you are going to have half or more of the econmy working like a black market if your gov does things like that, but people let them. You can even find some who agree that the solution is more more more of the same old thing, and ofc they vote like that. BUT I can evade things like that here in my country, if I go to Italy it would only be the right thing to do to follow the law. I would be more like a guest in your country, and I would be of that percentage of people who pays every month and every year.

Italy has stagnated for the last thirty years for a number of reasons. The most important of these are its industry having played catch up did not invest enough in R&D and fell behind those that did. It also lost out due to delocalisation and off-shoring of production in the clothing and footwear Industries. It is also burdened by inefficient public administration and universities where academic appointments are based on nepotism rather than merit and the rise of two populist parties that are good at protesting and campaigning but have no idea how to run an economy. The efforts made to join the Euro are often blamed but here it is more of missed opportunity. This should have been accompanied by reforms as took place n Germany and the Nordic countries. While some reform did take place if we look at the counter factual would Italy really be better off if it stayed out and carried on by continuously devaluing its currency? As an open economy they might have reduced the price of some exports like wine in doing so but arguably Italian wine is underpriced already. In automotive the fact that a large part of the value added and cost base involves parts and components that are imported would have led to an increase in the cost base and a narrowing of profit margins. Finally without the Euro Italy would have had to pay more to finance its outsized national debt. When countries started to make efforts to clean up public finances 30 years ago, Ireland and Belgium had similar numbers to Italy. The difference is that they were more successful in large part because they had politicians who did the right thing and did not kick the can down the road.

It is true that Italy has many problems that do not depend on the single currency. But there is a fact: throughout the 70s, 80s and even 90s, labor productivity in Italy was constantly growing, but starting with the adoption of the euro and the fixed exchange rate at the beginning of the 2000s economic growth has effectively stopped. We understand why: with the euro, both the Italian state and businesses have much less resources to reinvest and increase productivity. Italy should return to its national currency, but it is too hot a political issue and there is strong opposition from the Italian and European political establishment.

Economic growth was also backed up thanks to recurrent currency devaluation which made export easier but also greatly inflated public debt and inflation (far above the "healthy" inflation growth).
