Italy’s deputy prime minister Antonio Tajani is proposing a bold new strategy to shore up public finances: big banks and energy giants could voluntarily pay their taxes ahead of schedule. This voluntary advance payment plan, backed by past successes with similar agreements, aims to fund next year’s budget and ease pressure on households hit by soaring energy prices. Tajani argues it’s fair for profitable firms to help during tough times — without resorting to punitive tax hikes that might scare off investors. His approach favors collaboration over confrontation, echoing successful deals already in place, while leaving room for future negotiations if emergencies arise.
