Why Greek bonds are so resilient - eKathimerini.com

Greek bonds are resilient in the face of international market turmoil, as strong fiscal performance, the reduction in public debt and its very structure protect Greek securities from shocks. Amid one of the most serious market crises of the last decade, Greek bond yields remain relatively subdued, easing concerns about worsening lending conditions. The relatively resilient image of Greek bonds is also linked to the country’s fiscal performance. While discussions intensify in Europe about fiscal adjustment, Greece boasts a primary surplus – 3.6% of GDP in 2026, per the draft budget – and a 2026 growth rate of 2%, above the eurozone average. Markets continue to take into account the history of the debt crisis and the 2012 restructuring.
