Structural reform in Greece 2010–2018 (CR 2018)

The study evaluates the implementation of structural reforms agreed in the first and second adjustment programmes and aimed at the enhancement of competition in markets, the improvement of the business environment and privatisations. It focuses on eight major reform categories and issues affecting key sectors of economic activity in Greece or inducing significant changes in the business environment and the operation of markets. The methodology adopted includes the screening of the relevant reforms, the analysis of their implementation and economic impact and the evaluation of their progress with respect to original goals. The analysis is based on detailed and, in many cases, non-publicly available data and information from a wide range of official national sources, and employs both qualitative and quantitative methodologies.
