Greece on Tuesday raised 3.0 billion euros from capital markets through successful completion of a 10-year bond issue which attracted significant interest, ANA reports.
Commenting on the success of the new issue, government spokesman Stelios Petsas noted that “the markets’ confidence towards Greece and the government is confirmed in action and that is to the benefit of all Greeks”.
It was the third time this year that Greece resorted to international capital markets, following a 15-year bond (2.5 billion euros at 1.88 pct) and a seven-year bond (2.0 billion euros at 2.0 pct).
