Concluding Greece’s second program review is a matter of “common sense” and the country must not miss this opportunity, Bank of Greece governor Yannis Stournaras said during a briefing of the parliament’s finance committee on Monday.

The Greek economy risks being bogged down again due to the pressures from the country’s lenders to take new measures and the government’s inability to conclude the second program review, the Hellenic Federation of Enterprises (SEV) said in its monthly economic bulletin on Monday. 

Greece’s second program review will conclude without making concessions on issues of principle, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said in parliament on Wednesday, during a debate on a parliamentary committee report which looked into bank loans received by political parties and media in recent years.
