Greece has weathered the pandemic well, with a considerably stronger-than-expected recovery. Reforms progressed in several areas, including digitalisation, privatisation, improving the fiscal policy mix, and bank balance sheet repair. Greece finalised its early repayment to the IMF on April 4 and is expected to graduate from the quarterly European Institutions’ Enhanced Surveillance framework on schedule by August 2022. Despite the adverse impact of the war in Ukraine, growth is projected to remain robust at 3.5 percent this year and 2.6 percent in 2023, the IMF said in a report on June 21.
