Italian Economic Environment• 9th major exporter, 8th major importer, 11th major investor, 13th destination of

• Presence of industrial clusters.
• Expected GDP growth low due to restrictive measures to reduce public debt and to international crisis.
• Strict control on inflation and public expenditure to comply with EU parametres.
