IMF Reports Remarkable Resilience in Greek Economy.

On March 24, 2026, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) concluded its latest review, painting a picture of an economy that has successfully moved from Grexit to Grecovery. Real GDP expanded by 2.1% in 2025, and unemployment has dropped to 8.3%, near pre-2008 crisis levels. Greece is also planning to repay €7 billion of its first bailout package ahead of schedule. To combat persistent inflation (3.1%), the government announced a new minimum wage increase set to take effect in April 2026 to support household purchasing power. The IMF warned that high energy prices and regional instability in the Middle East could slow growth to 1.8% later this year.
