An unprecedented crisis which is expected to change a lot in the world trade.
Favorable environment
The flow of new capital is estimated to give, together with tourism, the necessary impetus that the country seeks to maintain the positive momentum. The environment for Greece is favorable, since its brand name has been upgraded, as recorded by leading investment firms. They may have revised the initial forecasts for 2022 GDP downwards, but the growth rate remains strong close to 3% -3.5% reaching close to 4% in 2023, due to the increased disbursement of funds from the Recovery and Sustainability Fund of the EU.
The economic climate, as indicated in the analysis, has returned to pre-crisis highs and is above the European average, and the unemployment rate, at around 13%, is the lowest since 2010.
