Abstract

In this paper, we develop the Climate Policy Uncertainty Index (CPU) for the Italian context based on news from major Italian newspapers. The CPU index exhibits distinct movements around major national and international climate events. We also investigate the effects of CPU on the Italian financial market. The results provide evidence that a shock CPU has a negative impact on financial market performance.
