Bank of Greece (BoG) governor Yannis Stournaras estimated that growth rates could rise higher than 3 percent after 2020, given the right conditions, ANA reports.
Nevertheless, the Bank of Greece estimated that GDP will grow by 1.9 percent this year, while in 2020 the growth rate will exceed 2 percent.
Speaking at an event organised by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation at Yale University in the U.S. on Thursday, Stournaras urged the government to rapidly implement its reform programme in order to limit future risks and address remaining challenges, as well as the residual effects of the crisis, such as the reduction of investments by 67.5 billion euros in 2010-16.
