According to Reuters, December 20, 2024 marked important changes in the investment and monetary policy landscape in Italy, especially in the field of coins. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's government won a vote of confidence in the House of Representatives for the 2025 budget, which kept the tax rate on profits from coins at 26% for next year and will increase to 33% in 2026. This decision revised the previous plan to increase to 42%.
With Italy under pressure from the European Union to cut its budget deficit and control its public debt, the move could help Italy make better use of investment funds, especially as the crypto market continues to grow. The increased tax rate creates an incentive for investors to take a closer look at altcoin investments in Italy, as the country strives to stabilize its finances and stimulate economic growth.
Meanwhile, the global coin market is currently closely watching the policy changes in Italy, as these moves not only affect the domestic market but can also create strong signals for the global market. The change in tax policy of one of the three largest economies in the eurozone is a clear demonstration of the influence of national financial policy on the world financial market.
It is also worth noting that Italy’s economic growth has slowed significantly this year, with the growth rate reaching only about half of the government’s official target of 1%. This shows that Italy is in dire need of long-term economic stabilization strategies and measures, including effective management of the growing coin market.
