Data on Italy

Exports as a % of GDP: 30% - 2016

 General government spending as a % of GDP: 50% - 2016

 Net investment in non-financial assets as a % of GDP: .985% - 2016

 Tax revenue as a % of GDP: 42.4% - 2017

 The savings rate as a % of GDP: 0.7% - 2017

 Imports as a % of GDP: 26% - 2016

 Based on the figures, it has been assessed that as of 2016-17 there was a slightly greater presence of injections
most notably due to government spending (50%) and exports (30%). This means that the national output will
