Rule reminder

Italian economic journalism uses a specialised vocabulary mixing Italian terms with anglicisms. Key areas: macroeconomics (PIL, inflazione, spread, deficit), corporate news (utile, fatturato, OPA, fusione), banking (tassi di interesse, liquidità, bail-out), labour (cassa integrazione, contratto collettivo, sciopero), and market (Borsa, indici, crollo, rally). The Bank of Italy (Banca d'Italia) and ISTAT (statistics agency) are key institutional sources.
