The loan, which is part of emergency liquidity measures the government is making available to the country’s businesses, must be approved by Intesa Sanpaolo’s board, the source said.

Once approved by the lender, the request will be reviewed by Italy’s export credit agency SACE, through which the state provides its guarantee, and then by the Treasury for a final green light, the source added.

FCA and Intesa Sanpaolo declined to comment.
