“Greece will get investment grade after elections,” says BoG Stournaras

Speaking at a conference organized in Athens by The Economist and the British Hellenic Chamber of Commerce on “The Global Economy and Financial Services Gala Dinner: Manoeuvring through the current turmoil,” Stournaras expressed optimism on the deescalation of public debt and on the economy’s growth trajectory. If the Greek economy is threatened by something, that is overheating rather than recession, he told a panel. He added that this year the GDP would increase by about 2.3%, surpassing by a great margin growth rates of the Eurozone in its total.
