EBRD issues same growth forecasts for Greece: 2% in 2017, 2.2% in 2018

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), in its latest report, issued the same forecasts for Greek GDP growth for 2017 and 2018: 2 and 2.2 percent respectively.

The forecasts were the same as the ones issued by the EBRD last March.

The development bank said the Greek economy returned to the growth in the first half of the year (0.6 percent on an annual basis) on the back of progress towards implementing reforms and an increase in confidence, as well as positive performances in terms of industrial output and exports.
