Berlusconi’s Heir Attacks Italy’s Meloni Windfall Tax on Banks

Marina Berlusconi, the eldest daughter of Silvio Berlusconi, slammed Giorgia Meloni’s plan to tax banks profits as “demagoguery”, the first public criticism of the usually private businesswoman against Italy’s prime minister.

The tax “risks making Italy less attractive for foreign investors,” said Marina Berlusconi, who chairs the family holding Fininvest SpA, “I hope the parliament will change it in a way to make it more balanced.”
