Deputy Finance Minister: The Recovery Fund will mobilize investments

Deputy Finance Minister Theodoros Skylakakis expressed the opinion that the Recovery Fund will bring additional money, will mobilize investments, and consequently will create jobs and better salaries.

Speaking to SKAI 100.3, the minister referred to the intense interest that exists from abroad for investments in Greece, emphasizing that this was also shown in an online lecture held yesterday with French business representatives, who see positive prospects in our economy.

Mr. Skylakakis stressed that our macroeconomic scenarios also show average growth in the next 4 years of 4% with much better data in 2022.

Finally, referring to yesterday’s issue of a new five-year bond whose offers exceeded 20 billion euros, he spoke of a good development and pointed out that to this positive news should be added the course of the ten-year bond whose yield has fallen since 2019 from about 3 to 0.9%, and also the upgrades from rating agencies.
