  • Italy's Borsa Italiana Workers Strike Over Conditions Amid Euronext Control
    April 30, 2026, 1:49 AM EDT. Workers at Italy's stock exchange Borsa Italiana will stage a half-day strike on Thursday seeking improved working conditions amid conflict with parent company Euronext. The strike, beginning midday local time, is not expected to disrupt automated trading platforms. Union representatives cite exclusion from key decisions by the Paris-based operator, dissatisfaction with reduced remote work days, low bonuses and stagnant lunch vouchers. Euronext acquired Borsa Italiana in a 4.3 billion euro deal in 2021, centralizing decision-making in Paris according to unions. Around 800 employees across Milan and Rome work on exchange platforms including Borsa Italiana, Monte Titoli, MTS and CC&G. The strike follows a similar action two years ago with limited management response, highlighting ongoing tensions in Italy's financial infrastructure.
