“…4 Faini et al (1993), and relevant literature therein, also argue, and provide relevant empirical evidence, for financial policies in view of the productivity puzzle (which is due to the financial sector's problems that are different and more severe from the rest of Italy's regions); in effect finance in the South of Italy is inefficient in comparison to the rest of the country. Also informational asymmetries, which "may result in too much money being invested in high risk projects and too little in safe projects" (Faini et al,op.…”
