As we’ve highlighted several times, despite the prevailing geopolitical and economic challenges worldwide, the Greek economy is demonstrating exceptional momentum.
I find it timely to revisit the topic of the Greek economy, particularly in light of recent reports from international firms and investment banks.
These analyses consistently underscore several key points: a gradual yet significant strengthening of economic activity, steady but mild growth, and a marked de-escalation of public debt.
Furthermore, an increasing number of analysts anticipate growth for this year to be around—or primarily above—2.5%.
While these figures may appear modest, they contribute positively to the upward trend observed in recent years, fueled by a resurgence in investments and a measured rise in consumption.
What does this translate to in practical terms?
It suggests that the Greek economy is gaining greater confidence and resilience, undergoing structural improvements that enhance development prospects and fiscal stability.
However, does this mean the outlook is entirely rosy? Certainly not.
We face external challenges, the most pressing of which include geopolitical imbalances due to conflicts, disruptions in supply chains, and complex tariff negotiations.
Internally, there are two critical imperatives: First, we must implement more structural reforms to liberate the economy from existing burdens, rigidities, and distortions. Second, it is essential to establish a foundation that supports sustained growth rates and ongoing investments, even after the Recovery Fund cycle concludes.
Can we succeed in these endeavors?
The odds are in our favor.
And you can bet on that.
