ROMA (ITALPRESS) – In Italy the internal financial vulnerabilities remain contained, but the protractions of geopolitical tensions, the rise of long-term rates and the still high evaluations on the markets represent the main unknowns for global stability. It is the framework outlined by the Bank of Italy in the second Report on Financial Stability of 2026.
According to Via Nazionale, despite recent corrections in the technological sector — with strong uncertainties on profitability — market quotations remain exposed to the risk of new declines. Moreover, the rapid spread of advanced models of artificial intelligence amplifies the cyber and operational risks, prompting to ask for more solid security guards to all intermediaries.
On the domestic front, the financial conditions remain as a whole, although there is a spread between Btp and Bund recorded by the end of June. Credit grows moderately and household and business balances remain balanced, although a prolonged crisis in the Middle East could put them under pressure. Finally, the banking sector, supported by high levels of assets, good profitability and low risk of loans, as well as the insurance sector, shows a high and useful solvency in improvement.
