Italy's debt and Italian savers investing in Italian government bonds- a key difference with Spain
05/14/2010
Italy issued 18 billion euros in bonds in October 2012 at 4.74%, with most of the bonds going to Italian savers. The borrowing costs are down significantly. Italian retail investors have net private wealth of over 8 trillion euros and household wealth is 4 times the GDP, one of the highest in Europe, according to the Bank of Italy. This means most of the interest paid remains inside Italy and is available for consumption and spending. This is a key difference with Spain where households are highly indebted after the housing bubble.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
