Abstract

This essay presents the findings of an inventory of the documents relating to the loan granted to Italy by the US Export Import Bank in 1947 that are conserved in the Intesa Sanpaolo Group Historical Archives – IMI Heritage. The article takes stock of the literature on postwar Italy, pointing to the relative scantiness, apart from a few essays and articles, of work on this first Ex-Im Bank loan to Italy and proposes an interpretation of the economic-political reasons for the aid accorded to Italy by the United States following the end of the war. The focus is on the description of the archival heritage, mainly still unpublished, and the article suggests some possible research questions that can be fruitfully explored using these documents as sources
