Enterprise Greece aims to promote and support Greece’s significant investment opportunities and to promote the global business community internalisation of goods and services made in Greece.
Last few years, Greece has focused its efforts on transforming the enterprise ecosystem to a “business-friendly environment” to set in the country’s economic potential. The transformation has succeeded through the implementation of reforms and initiatives which results are now being increasingly recognised by international economists and investors alike.
Some of the main achievements are reflected in the successive export records, the increasing foreign investment, and the specialisation in potential sectors such as technology, green energy and logistics.
The country's advantages have been recognised by the distinguished Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) recognized Greece as the global-scale country with the biggest improvement in its business environment. The EIU noted that the government’s pro-business approach, comprising reforms and tax cuts, has “restored confidence in the country.” Moreover, Greek achieve an upgrade in Moody's Investors Service ranking by six Greek banks and its macroeconomic profile of the country to reflect the improved economic standing of Greece. According to Moody's Investors Service agency, “Moody's has raised the Macro Profile it assigns to Greece to 'Moderate-' from 'Weak+'”. Thus, international investors see evidence of this growth, increasing FDI by 72.3% from €2.8 billion in 2020 to €4.8 billion in 2021. Not only that, but the latest data shows also that FDI this year may have already surpassed last year’s, which places Greece as one of the fastest-growing investment destinations in Europe.
This success is a combination of the economic strategy reform program, supported by the EU’s Recovery and Resilience Fund (RRF), which has to accelerate Greece’s transition to a green and digital economy.
For us is always a pleasure to stand out how countries and regions succeed with the cooperation of regional actors like Enterprise. We are sure Greece has long-term growth and prosperity in future development and will continue rising in international business rankings.
