Greece’s economy is performing better than it did seven years ago, but a series of domestic and international risks could weigh on future growth, according to Ioannis Bratakos, president of the Athens Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI). “The performance of the Greek economy today cannot be compared with where we were seven years ago,” he said. Geopolitical RisksBratakos identified geopolitical developments as the most significant risk facing the Greek economy, pointing to the war in Ukraine and instability in the Middle East. He also referred to a study by the Foundation for Economic and Industrial Research (IOBE), which estimates the annual cost of the climate crisis to the Greek economy at €16 billion. Energy CostsHigh energy costs remain a challenge for Greek businesses and industry, Bratakos said.
