Abstract Since 2012 the Italian Government made several steps to repay its commercial
debts. By using a composite dataset, we evaluate the effect of these policies on the financial
performances of a representative sample of Italian firms. We distinguish between firms
beneficiaries of these repayments, those that were not repaid, although they had a legitimate
right, and those that did not have commercial relations with the General Government. We
find that receiving money had a significant positive impact on firms' financial position.
