Greek Private Investment in the Balkans

Abstract

Greek private direct investments in Balkan countries carry a special weight because, on the one hand, the country of origin of the capital invested is a member of the European Union and, on the other, it is a neighboring country and those involved are well aware of the business ethics prevailing on both sides. Furthermore, the existing historical bonds between Greece and the other Balkan countries, combined with the large number of immigrants from the latter to the former, contribute to the better understanding and collaboration of all concerned.
