Résumé anglais The Cost of Stabilizing Public Finances in Italy, by Philippe Gudin de Vallerin. This article presents a number of simulations made using the Multimod model to study the impact on the real economy of stabilizing Italian public finances. The short-term depressive effects are considerably mitigated by the credibility gains resulting from the reduced public debt and by the Ricardian effects generated by the anticipated drop in long-term tax and social security contributions. In all cases, the stabilization of public finances alone cannot completely resolve the problems of nominal alignment, especially in the context of a sharp devaluation of the lira. This observation confirms the idea that the wage agreement needs to be strictly adhered to if inflation is to be significantly reduced.
