AP report: IMF expects Greek economy to grow by 2.4% during 2019

AP reports from Athens that the International Monetary Fund is optimistic on Greece’s growth and employment prospects for this year, but is urging the government to stick to reforms to maintain the momentum.

In a report published Friday after five-day talks with officials in Athens, IMF officials say that the battered Greek economy is set to grow 2.4 percent this year, up from 2.1 percent in 2018.
