The Chairman of Piraeus Bank Michalis Sallas told journalists that Greece is in need of a new narrative, when asked to comment on the prior actions bill that was voted in Parliament.

Mr. Sallas argued that the agreement must be viewed by everyone – whether they supported it or not – as an opportunity to consolidate public finances and reinforce the level of competition in Greece.

According the Piraeus Bank chairman, it is imperative to modernize and recover the Greek economy. As such, he argued, it is necessary to focus on investments for improvement and growth, while tackling the serious unemployment problem and give prospects to the country’s youth and scientific workforce.
