Economic indices are positive and the figures released by the Hellenic Statistical Authority are encouraging, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said on Friday in a meeting with the leadership of the Hellenic Bank Association (HBA).
Tsipras added that the Greek economy can register growth rates approaching 2 pct of GDP in 2017, for the first time in over a decade.
“‘What is needed,” he said, “is to maintain fiscal balance, provide liquidity tools and increase demand to help the Greek economy grow.”
