Greece

Key dates before the next briefing (2026-11-09)

• 2026-10-16 · Eurostat publishes full September 2026 HICP data for the euro area, including Greece

  It will confirm or revise the 5.1% flash estimate for Greece, which feeds into cost planning and wage negotiations.

  Eurostat

• 2026-10-23 · S&P scheduled sovereign rating review of Greece (currently BBB, stable)

  A change to the outlook would move Greek bond spreads and, with them, financing costs in Greece.

  Public Debt Management Agency (PDMA)

• 2026-10-29 · ECB Governing Council monetary policy decision and press conference (Frankfurt)

  With Greek inflation at an estimated 5.1%, a further rate rise would push up euro borrowing costs for Greek operations and acquisitions.

  European Central Bank

• 2026-11 · Final 2027 state budget bill to be submitted to Parliament, with updated macroeconomic and inflation estimates

  It will fix the tax-relief and subsidy measures for 2027 and may revise the inflation and growth assumptions.

  Naftemporiki

• 2026-11-04 · Next Eurostat flash estimate of euro-area HICP inflation

  It will show whether the energy-driven price increase in Greece is easing or continuing.

  Eurostat

• 2026-11-06 · Fitch scheduled sovereign rating review of Greece (currently BBB, stable)

  It is the second major rating review of the period and will show whether rating agencies think the fiscal outlook is holding up against the energy shock.

Outlook

Watch whether the 29 October ECB decision brings another rate rise, and whether Greek inflation stays near 5%. Also watch the S&P (23 October) and Fitch (6 November) reviews, which could follow Moody's move to a positive outlook. I could not find ELSTAT's release calendar in this cycle, so Greek national data dates such as Q3 GDP are not included above.
