Italian public debt returned to growth in October after the decline in September. According to figures from the Bank of Italy, it climbed by €50.7 billion over the previous month, reaching €3,131.7 billion. The increase, it explained, "reflects the growth in Treasury liquidity (€31.8 billion, to €77.2 billion), the general government borrowing requirement (€18.8 billion), as well as the impact of spreads and premiums on issuance and redemption, the revaluation of inflation-linked securities, and exchange rate fluctuations (€0.1 billion)." Examining the division by subsector, the rise in debt is primarily due to central government debt (€50.6 billion) and local government debt (€0.2 billion). The social security debt remained practically unchanged.
