Eurobank report sees balanced current accounts by 2015

A Eurobank report forecast on Monday that the Greek economy will reach a balance of trade between exports and imports in 2015, from a 15 percent deficit (or 34.8 billion euros) in 2008.

The current account balance is used as a key index for economies’ competitiveness.
