The economy of our country, which came from two decades of zero growth, has been hit hard by the pandemic. However, what is emerging seems to be a brighter future than expected. The repercussions on the economy have in fact been contained by the expansive policies put in place by governments and, beyond this, the injections of money coming from Europe, thanks to the Recovery Fund, give encouraging signs for the future of our country and Europe.

The Next Generation Eu is therefore an important opportunity to launch a supranational economic policy tailored to the needs of the Member States which, for Italy, coincides with the unrepeatable opportunity to implement the reforms necessary to resolve the structural weaknesses of the country.
So what will be the future of Europe after the economic shock of Covid-19? Are we on the eve of a new economic boom for post-Covid Italy? What economic scenarios await us in the post-Covid "new world"?

With Alberto Locarno, economist with long experience in the Bank of Italy and expert in economic outlook and monetary policies, participants will have the opportunity to discuss the following topics:

• the overall macroeconomic scenario and outlook for Italy
• the role of supporting the growth of European economic policies
• European monetary policy: effects on credit, financial conditions, long-term risks, inflation
• the role of monetary policy in the ecological transition.
