"The resources that may be obtained from the implementation of the operation will depend on the amount of the share that will be placed on the market. Should the entire shareholding directly held by the Mef be sold, without prejudice to the assessments that may be made regarding the maintenance of the majority public participation in the capital, the countervalue deduced on the basis of the most recent market data available could amount to approximately 4.4 billion".
Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti said this at the hearing on the sale of a share of the Post Office.
"The divestment operation represented in the Prime Ministerial Decree currently being examined by Parliament - he added - must be considered a framework that identifies a minimum value of the State's participation, which can be achieved progressively and in several phases, in order to safeguard control public strategy on this asset".
