Abstract: The Council of Europe Convention on 11 May 2011 address the economic violence as one of the kind of violence a woman may face dealing with incomes from her work, access to labor market, establishment of enterprises, access to entrepreneurial activities and governance bodies. The paper focuses on four typical situations of economic violence and subsequent risks for the woman and society and economy. Economy law may propose the use of instruments to prevent or fight economic violence: from tax incentives, to woman enterprise incentives; from direct finance, to loans at discounted rates; from quota to the underrepresented gender to incentives to build educational and professional skills dedicated to woman in order to fill the gap and play at the same level. Some of them have been already used with good kind of success, other not, but their common element is that there is a better and specific educational and training need for woman to prevent economic violence. The paper will practically show some data in respect of certain instruments within the Italian legal framework. Conclusion of the paper will address needs for a better and specific education and training before introducing new Economy law measures in the Italian legal framework, pursuant in some case to EU legislation.
