Daniele Franco, who is the Minister of Economy who will replace Gualtieri

Daniele Franco, who is the Minister of Economy who will replace Gualtieri

Here is the curriculum vitae of Daniele Franco, Minister of Economy and Finance in the Draghi government

One of the major innovations is that of the Ministry of Economy for the Draghi government.

The democrat Roberto Gualtieri – perhaps due to the faults also on the Recovery Plan disaster – is not reconfirmed and is replaced by Daniele Franco, current general manager of the Bank of Italy and former State General Accountant.

For Franco, the new Minister of Economy and Finance, joining the executive that will lead him to cross the door of Via XX Settembre represents a sort of "return".

Here because.

Public accounts expert, current general manager of Bankitalia, he was the State General Accountant, a role from which he played a guarantee role.

His curriculum – writes Ansa – guarantees Draghi professional competence and rigor, and a thorough knowledge of the intricacies and mechanisms of the public budget and of a public administration to be simplified.

And Franco's personal revenge, given that between 2018 and 2019, saw him bitterly leave the office of State Accountant General when a private message from the then spokesman of Prime Minister Conte ended up in the newspapers exposing him to insulting accusations.

When his Accounting, watchdog of balances and financial coverage, saw the relationship with the yellow-green government anxious about the 'stamp', and the then Deputy Prime Minister Luigi Di Maio declared about him "I'm not saying that I do not trust but it is not my best friend "emphasizing, in fact, the" primacy of politics ".

The experience of Franco, born in Veneto in 1953 in Trichiana, in the Belluno area, is all-round: after graduating, master in economics in Great Britain, then a career, marked by academic positions, between Bank of Italy, from the beginning after graduation to his return with Draghi Governatore, the European Commission where he is advisor to DG Economic Affairs, the collaboration with the ECB. Until the appointment as State Accountant General, in 2013, and in 2019 the arrival at the top of Bankitalia and, from 2020, the appointment as number two of the Governor and the presidency of Ivass .
