Italy Q4 2017 final GDP q/q +0.3% vs +0.3% prelim

Latest data released by Istat - 2 March 2018

• Q4 final GDP y/y +1.6% vs +1.6% prelim

Preliminary figures can be found here.

Right in line with preliminary figures so that means on a work day adjusted level, GDP grew by 1.5% in 2017.

Nothing much else from the report. Again, another reminder we have political risk in Italy this weekend as we have the Italian elections on 4 March. The votes are expected to be counted up until Monday, so brace yourselves for that.
