2013-01-07 05:00:09 - New Financial Services research report from Timetric is now available from Fast Market Research

Greece has been in recession since 2008 and in 2011 the economy contracted by 6.9%. The nation was granted two bailouts by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the EU. While the first bailout was sanctioned in 2010, the second was ratified in February 2012. However, with worsening economic conditions, the possibility of a third bailout, with loans of up to EUR44 billion was agreed upon by Eurozone finance ministers in November 2012. The country is not expected to return to positive growth until 2015, once the sovereign debt crisis begins to subside. The growth of the Greek insurance industry is closely tied to the nation's economic growth. Consequently, its performance was adversely impacted by the country's prolonged recession.
