source on that one?
- toyg 4y agoGoogle "Tassa patrimoniale Amato 1992". The government directly fetched 0.6% of all current account balances overnight.
- tlamponi 4y agoThanks for that! The speculation against the pound and lira I heard of, but that was before my time and the retroactive tax wasn't ever thought in school, at least I'd like to think that I had remembered such things. Not sure how that would play out on todays (well, current as today Italy's last gov is no more) landscape...
