(ANSA) – MILAN, MAY 12 – Pandemic and winds of war have reinvigorated the inclination of Italians to save. “It’s an unstoppable race”, driven by liquidity. But “it’s time to invest”. This is the main message that emerges from the third Censis-Assogestioni report, presented at the Salone del Risparmio, which takes a picture of the profiles of Italian savers. According to the survey, almost half of savers are ready to thaw some liquidity. Italians say yes to ethical investments (78.2%) and in the real economy (54.4%), while government bonds and bricks do not attract. Furthermore, 53.1% of savers would invest in asset management products. Today the savings share accumulated by Italians is 5 thousand billion, of which a significant part is in liquid form held in current accounts. “So many private resources are available to restart investments”, explains the Report which identifies different categories of savers. 21.5% are afraid and are “obsessed with cash”; 30.8% are cautious, that is, they want to preserve their cash quota and view investments with little conviction; 36.4%, on the other hand, are moderate investors, ready to invest at least part of the accumulated cash. The most daring savers are 11.3%: solid from a capital point of view, accustomed to equity investments, they are now inclined to invest part of their resources in high-risk financial assets with high potential returns.
