Franco Bassanini is resistant to attack by Matteo Renzi . He remains president of the Cassa Depositi e Prestiti, but is already in the odor of commissioner . Bassanini and currently the CEO of CDP, Giovanni Gorno Tempini , are in fact able to avoid a painful turnaround that the Mef threatened to cause through the resignation of its five directors and the consequent decline of the entire board of directors . Officially, the Management Board of 16 June did not touch the issue of the parts at the top of the CDP, but has only given permission for the entry in the bailout fund companies government.

But how did Bassanini and Gorno to stay in the saddle? The credit is basically the bank foundations , which members of the CDP (18.4%), have publicly defended the actions of the two manager . The president of the foundations and savings banks (Acre), Giuseppe Guzzetti , has explained how the tandem Bassanini Gorno-have “done important things” and reiterated that the mission of the CDP is “to grow the country” thanks to the firepower of the postal savings of the Italians. Certainly not turn into “a new Iri” as he pointed the exponent of the foundations which by statute is responsible for the appointment of the President of the Cassa Depositi e Prestiti. The intervention of Guzzetti served immediately to avoid a confrontation , but not to change the plans of Renzi thinking about a rotation soft that makes room former Goldman Sachs banker, Claudio Costamagna , and the current CEO of BNL, Fabio Gallia , sued by the magistrates of Trani for alleged fraud in the sale of products.

Looking forward to reaching an agreement with the foundations on the future of the CDP, the government is considering “commissariare” Bassanini by expanding the board of the CDP and the stage entrance of Stefano Firpo , director of Economic Development and Roberto Sambuco , former Mise where he worked the calls of the public company Infratel against digital divide before becoming head of the Rome office of the study Vitale & amp ; Associates . The same consulting firm hired by Telecom in the deal, then vanished, to win Metroweb .

On the topic of fiber , ideas Elder are different from those of Bassanini that would spread the bandwidth up home users through a “condominium” public-private revolving around Metroweb. For Elder, however, the state is rather an “entrepreneur in time” and “within a maximum of ten years” “abandon the ‘ investment and release to the market infrastructure built.” But that assumption would allow public purse to benefit only in part of the infrastructure investments made.

Hard to imagine then that Bassanini and Elderberry can get along on the fiber which, however, according to the president of Telecom Giuseppe Recchi , has “no connection” with the change at the summit of the CDP. To Recchi strategy Telecom , in the midst of a shareholder reorganization, is in tune with that of the executive: the group, he explained, has a “plan in line with the objectives of the government” to “bring the high-speed bandwidth to all the houses of the Italian “. A plan that, however, according to Bassanini, major sponsor of the entrance of Enel in the game of fiber , provides sufficient investment to cover only some area.
