IMF: Recession keeps Italy's banks at risk

Italy's financial system has shown impressive strength but the ongoing recession remains a major threat to its banks, the International Monetary Fund said Tuesday. "The Italian financial system has shown remarkable resilience in the face of a severe and prolonged recession at home and a major crisis in Europe," the IMF said in a report on the country's banks. However, it said, "While stabilized, the Italian financial system is not immune from risks: continuing weakness in the real economy and the link between the financial sector and the sovereign remain key risks."
