The Greek economy has fallen 18 per cent in recent years, and unemployment is up to about 20 per cent. But even that figure hides the massive social dislocation that is underway as half of those under 25 can't find work.
Add in the fact that over 60,000 businesses have closed over the past two years, and another 55,000 Greek businesses are expected to collapse this year. The loss in personal savings alone is incalculable.
