ROME - 'Even Cassa Depositi e Prestiti will participate among the institutions that contribute 5 billion euros on behalf of the financial sector to the Budget Law.' This is what Vice Premier and Prime Minister of Italy Antonio Tajani said during his opening speech at the 'Italy Welfare' forum organized by Unipol and Teha held in Rome.
