Greece's economic success story

Greece is no longer Europe’s chronic bailout case. It is becoming one of the world’s most compelling economic comeback stories and one of Europe’s most strategically important states.

The turnaround is real. Greece’s economy is expected to grow 2.4% in 2026, after expanding 2.2% in 2025. Tourism remains strong, but business investment is rising, and household consumption is improving. Even more significantly, Greece’s debt-to-GDP ratio is projected to fall another 8 percentage points this year, to roughly 138%. For a country that once symbolized European fiscal excess, this trajectory is remarkable.
