Greece has come through a major debt crisis, with austerity imposed by its ‘bailout’ programmes. It then had to manage the COVID-19 impact. So, what next? How could it chart a way forward to a stronger economic future? The committee chaired by Professor Sir Christopher Pissarides had been tasked by the PM with developing a plan for sustainable economic growth in Greece. In this event, Professor Pissarides outlined the main elements of the plan and Louka Katseli and Michael Haliassos gave their comments.
