Samaras to multinationals: Increase your investments in Greece

During the meeting with 13 representatives of multinational companies operating in Greece, prime minister Antonis Samaras said the government is committed to proceeding with the necessary structural changes and creating a favorable investment environment.

He added that the recent Eurogroup decision, which puts an end to the uncertainty about the grexit and stabilizes the Greek banking system, is working in that direction and that the government is making efforts to boost liquidity. He asked the representatives not only to stay in the country but also to increase their investments by proposing new products.

He also said that there is a clear improvement in competitiveness in Greece and this is reflected in the state’s financial figures. The government wants to change the situation with the new investment bill and by accelerating interventions and privatizations for a smooth operation of the market.

According to information, there will be a new meeting between the two sides in one month. Today’s meeting was also attended by ministers of Finance Yannis Stournaras, Development Kostis Hatzidakis and deputy minister Notis Mitarakis.
