MILAN (Reuters) - Italy’s Economy Minister Giovanni Tria said on Wednesday he feared the ongoing economic slowdown at a global level could trigger a new financial crisis.
“Everybody fears a financial crisis can translate into a global economic crisis [...] My opinion is ... that the economic slowdown, especially if it were to worsen, could lead to a global financial crisis,” Tria said at an event in China.
