Annual indicators from World Bank Open Data (CC BY 4.0), each shown with its observation year — refreshed daily, but the underlying series are annual and only move when the World Bank publishes.

Everything here except the policy rate is a euro-area aggregate, not Italy’s own figure: growth, unemployment and money supply are published for the currency area as a whole, and the country-level numbers are the annual World Bank series above. The policy rate is the exception — it is set once for the whole area, so it is Italy’s rate too.
