rottura/inefficienza/cedimento/ intenzionale


Explanation:
Failure can have may meanings in italian.
If we are talking about something that broke down then it could be rottura, if somthing is not working properly it would inefficienza.
A financial collapse would be fallimento.
Which is it to be, I wonder :-))
