Italy will ask the European Union for deficit flexibility worth 0.6% of GDP in 2027, while raising its 2026 GDP growth forecast to 0.8% from the 0.6% projected in April. Rome also expects the 2026 deficit to fall below 3% of GDP, the EU's reference threshold, as it seeks room in next year's budget planning.

Why now: Italy's budget plans and its request for EU fiscal flexibility have direct implications for eurozone fiscal rules and markets.
