From now until 2030, according to the official assessments, in addition to the € billion envisaged under the Plan, the South can count on additional resources of around € billion from the European structural funds and the Development and Cohesion Fund.
These are substantial allocations, the use of which should kick-start the southern economy, such as to contribute to increasing the productive potential of the entire country. The high public debt exposes our economy to considerable risks, including those connected with market volatility. Looking ahead, consistently higher growth rates than in the past will be needed to significantly reduce the debt.
