Α rise in Greek households’ available income combined with a significant reduction of unemployment are helping to ease pressures on family budgets by increasing inflation, Finance Minister Christos Staikouras said on Tuesday, ANA reports.
He was commenting on news that Greek households’ real available income grew 4.7% in the third quarter of 2021 compared with the same period in 2020, the second-highest growth rate in the Eurozone and six times more than the European average growth rate. Staikouras said these data, released by the European Central Bank, converge with data recently released by Hellenic Statistical Authority and OECD, with the Paris-based organization announcing that the per capita real income of Greek households recorded the second largest annual growth rate among its member-states.
