at the official Bank of Italy discount rate plus four basis points

I think it's important to translate "sconto" - banks have different interest rates for different things. And it's also important to say four basis/percentage points rather than 4%.

You could leave out "official", since there aren't any unofficial ones.
Peer comment(s):

neutral James (Jim) Davis : The Italian only says punti. So this is either 4 basis points or 4 percentage points. 4bp is tiny, while 4pc is a lot, but bank rates today are negative or close to zero. Penalties on unpaid invoices are usually high. My guess is percentage points.
