Privatizzazione senza liberalizzazione? Lo strano caso delle ferrovie italiane

Privitisation withour liberalisation? The strange case of Italian railways, and how adjustments to the government’s reforms could achieve gains for rail users and taxpayers

Alfredo Del Monte and Richard Price

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: The Italian government is proceeding with the privatisation of the Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane group, and is considering a merger with the government-owned highways company. In this article, we argue that changes could be made to the privatisation and reform process, learning from the British experience, which would bring substantial benefits to Italian rail users and taxpayers.
