Italy Budget 2027: Government prepares 23.5 billion euro package
The Italian government is finalizing the 2027 Budget Law, with a draft expected to be presented to the Council of Ministers on Tuesday, October 27. The package is valued at approximately 23.5 billion euros, excluding potential additional flexibility from negotiations with the European Commission.
Key areas of focus include support for families, the middle class, and young people, alongside investments in healthcare and education. Proposed measures under discussion include potential tax relief for certain income brackets, support for the elderly, and new funding for the health system. Political factions within the majority are negotiating specific priorities, such as pension reforms and tax adjustments for self-employed workers.
The government is also seeking to utilize the national safeguard clause to fund energy and defense initiatives. Additionally, the budget aims to generate increased revenue from the gaming sector, with an estimated contribution of approximately 1.9 billion euros over the 2027-2029 triennium through regulatory and fiscal interventions.
