RCC is pleased to sponsor this event featuring [Carlo Cottarelli](https://www.imf.org/external/np/bio/eng/ccot.htm), an IMF Executive Director for Italy, Albania, Greece, Malta, Portugal and San Marino since November 2014.The Italian economy has performed very poorly in the aftermath of the 2008-09 global financial crisis. This has reflected a combination of factors, some of them pertaining to the overall Euro-area crisis, some of them Italy-specific. Now Italy seems to be emerging from the crisis, although the recovery is still tentative. Why has Italy suffered so much from the 2008-09 crisis? Has its economic outlook now really improved? And how will policies and developments in the rest of the European Union affect Italy?
