Abstract

This paper assesses the macroeconomic and distributional impact of the Italian National Recovery and Resilience Plan. Using a large-scale dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model adapted to capture the effects of the plan's instruments, the study maps the NRRP into the model through granular administrative information available at the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance. The results suggest a sizable impact on key macroeconomic variables, mainly driven by public and private investment. The plan also affects the functional distribution of income: profits decline in the early years because of increased labor and capital demand, but subsequently rise above their initial level as GDP increases. Overall, the analysis highlights that the selection, design, and implementation of public-investment programs are crucial for the success of the plan, and that structural reforms should play an important complementary role.
