The first issue of Viomichaniki Epitheorissis’ “Industrial Review Special Survey Series” made its debut on December 1991.

A quarterly financial issue in English, containing extensive surveys on individual sectors of the Greek economy, written by Robert McDonald – former correspondent of the BBC and other international media networks & author of the Economist Intelligence Unit’s quarterly Country Report on Greece.

In 1998 it was updated and renamed “Business File Special Survey Series”.

Election Fever – Fourth annual review of the Greek economy

Greece has just been out of an election. As always, tempers ran high; people easily talked of “election fever” – something often associated with the state of the economy.

Two decades ago, Robert McDonald presented in the December 2003 issue of Business File the outlook of an economy with a “feel-good” aura but based on political grounds that already resembled moving sands.
