This paper proposes an integrated rehabilitation project of an abandoned farmhouse in a rural area in Southern Italy. The building underwent a functional recovery to become a tourist accommodation. The use of natural materials can reduce energy consumption and carbon footprints considering environmental sustainability aspects. A proper selection of interventions targeted for the specific warm climate has led to benefits for heating, cooling and lighting in the interior spaces. The project also includes the integration of hydraulic facilities and landscaping, such as planting hedges, green barriers and native trees.

In recent times several factors like financial speculation, high debt of the sovereign states of the euro, political and economic tensions of the smaller countries and the consequent reduction of credit ratings (for example Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Belgium, and so on) as well as the increase in spreads between borrowing rates of the different actors has brought the issue of public administration funding to the fore. More specifically public finance has been over many years the focus of research by professionals and practitioners since the Government and the local authorities have experimented new tools for collection of financial resources, due to the changed economic and financial environment. The use of derivatives by the Local Authorities is a new concept in order to fit with the new context in which the local authority operates. The purpose of such operations is to ensure solvency to the local authority within the short term without compromising its strength in the longer term. The aim of this study is to understand the innovative state of the art in public finance in Italy. The adopted approach is as follows: - a descriptive - deductive introduction to the background of the cultural, social, economic and financial changes in public institutions that led to adopt new innovative financial instruments, - an experimental-inductive approach to the analysis of regulatory developments and the identification of the scope of the phenomenon in Italy.

I modelli di ranking e di rating dei rischi d’impresa trovano nella valutazione quantitativa l’elemento più rappresentativo (in termini di numerosità di informazioni), rappresentando il nodo cruciale e di avvio di qualsiasi attività di previsione. Il bilancio rappresenta l’elemento informativo principale di cui l’impresa dispone per far conoscere all’esterno le proprie scelte strategiche ed operative. I risultati che da esso conseguono definiscono l’andamento della gestione passata e le condizioni di svolgimento di quella futura Il lavoro trae origine da questi importanti assiomi per individuare una traccia delle dinamiche di sviluppo delle imprese operanti nel territorio salentino; esse, per perseguire una crescita consapevole e sostenibile, dovranno confrontarsi tra loro, conoscere meglio se stesse ed i risultati dei comparti produttivi nei quali operano.
