Italian distressed and restructuring outlook in 2025
According to recent data, banks in Italy have registered a reduction in the NPE stock of 5.1 billion euros between March 2023 and June 2024, in sharp contrast to the main European banks which, with German (+9.4 billion) and French (+8.8 billion) leading the way, recorded a total increase of 16 billion euros in non-performing exposures. This improvement is the result of a long de-risking process undertaken by Italian banks, in collaboration with specialised operators, which in recent years have had a significant growth. Our panel will discuss the recent and significant wave of market consolidation, leading to the creation of more robust players prepared to tackle the challenges of the industry's transformation and therefore capitalise on emerging business opportunities.
- What is the current state of the restructuring market in Italy, and how is it expected to change in the next 12 months?
- Observing the growth of the UTP market, a very residual NPL one, and the improved status of Stage 2 loans in Italy
- Business transformation best practices and corporate turnarounds
- How are innovation, technology, AI and sustainability impacting practices and existing eco/systems?
