EUROZONE Economic Outlook - Q3 2020, September 2020

Despite the recent rebound in economic activity, the outlook in Euro Area remains extremely uncertain and is subject to exceptional risks given the spread of new infections in many European countries. Sluggish global demand and the recent appreciation of the single currency exchange rate could hamper exports and inflation outlook. In addition, lower energy prices, cautious household consumption and higher unemployment rates are expected to drag inflation rates even lower.

Greek Property Market Note, June 2020

The pandemic is expected to have a negative impact on the Greek Real Estate, but whether this impact will shrink or slow down the growth of the market remains to be seen. There is still a lot of uncertainty around the magnitude of the Covid-19 impact in this sector of the economy. A moderate optimism can be derived though from the results of the first quarter of 2020 in most of the submarkets and from the fact that Greece avoided the healthcare crisis of other countries.
