Rome, 22 Sept. (LaPresse) – “GDP growth in Italy in 2026 has been revised upwards by forecasters (to +0.8 per cent) compared with April (+0.5 per cent), thanks to two positive first quarters. There are various reasons for this: the unexpected fall in global demand for oil (particularly in China and Japan), which has prolonged the period of scarcity; the reduced pass-through of price rises to non-energy goods; and the boost provided by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) in the final stages.” This is according to Confindustria’s research centre in its flash economic report.
