Συγκεκριμένα, ο Δείκτης Κρατικών Ομολόγων κατέγραψε μείωση της τάξης του -0.46% τον Απρίλιο στις 684 μονάδες. Η μεσοσταθμική απόδοση του δείκτη, αν και ελάχιστα υψηλότερη σε σχέση με τις αρχές του 2021, παραμένει σε χαμηλά επίπεδα σηματοδοτώντας ότι η ζήτηση στην ελληνική αγορά ομολόγων παραμένει δυνατή. Ενδεικτικό της ζήτησης είναι και η έκδοση του 5ετούς ομολόγου με μηδενικό κουπόνι η οποία υπερκαλύφθηκε κατά 6.7 φορές του ποσού έκδοσης των €3 δις ενώ πάνω από 80% της έκδοσης διακρατείται από μακροπρόθεσμού επενδυτές. Παρά το γεγονός ότι το ποσό των €12 δις από το πρόγραμμα δανεισμού του 2021 έχει ήδη καλυφθεί, το επόμενο διάστημα και επιπρόσθετα του 5ετούς ομολόγου αναμένεται να υπάρξουν και νέες εκδόσεις πιθανότατα με την μορφή επανέκδοσης.

  • The Hadrianic Aqueduct
    Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Environmental Science and Technology Rhodes, Greece, 3-5 September 2015 THE HADRIANIC AQUEDUCT CHRISTAKI M.1, STOURNARAS G.1 and NASTOS P.2 1 National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Faculty of Geology and Geoenvironment, Department of Dynamic Tectonic Applied Geology, Panepistimiopolis Zografou, 15784, 2 National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Faculty of Geology and Geoenvironment, Department of Geography and Climatology, Panepistimiopolis Zografou, 15784 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Since prehistoric times, the city of Athens and the wider region of Attica did not contain many natural water sources so aquatic reserves were never adequate to meet the needs of residents, as these changed through time. The construction of aqueducts was part of a more organized effort to address the water needs of the Attica basin area since prehistoric times. A key step in developing the city’s water infrastructure took place during the Roman occupation of Athens when the Hadrianic aqueduct and the Hadrianic reservoir were built. Construction began in 125 AD and was completed in 140 AD The Hadrianic was underground with natural flow requiring a small and continuous slope along the aqueduct. Wells, communicated through the aqueduct, were placed at regular intervals. The main branch of the aqueduct - the central part of the Hadrianic, consists of the main tunnel, approximately 20 Km which starts from the foot of Mount Parnitha in the Olympic Village and ends up in the reservoir of Lycabettus, exploiting the water sources of Parnitha, Penteli and the Kifissos River. Gravity collected water from the water sources in the main tunnel and there was also the contribution of smaller aqueducts along the route.

  • Opening Ceremony in Athens Exchange for the Commencement of Trading Announcement of GEK TERNA Group Corporate Bond
    Athens, 6 July 2020 Opening ceremony in Athens Exchange for the Commencement of Trading Announcement of GEK TERNA Group Corporate Bond Chairman and CEO of GEK TERNA Group, Mr. George Peristeris extends his gratitude Good morning. On behalf of GEK TERNA Group, I would like to express our warm thanks to all those who contributed to the truly great success of our bond issue, especially in this very special period. Let's not forget that this is the largest bond issue for the Greek market and the first after the public health crisis, which changed so many things in the lives of all of us. In this context, I would like to thank the competent authorities of the Stock Exchange and the Hellenic Capital Market Commission for the excellent cooperation, our Advisors and Underwriters for the valuable support they offered us, all our employees within the Group who have been working hard for fifty years to get us where we are today, our executives who gave their best for the success of the bond issue and of course and above all the thousands of investors, private as well as institutional ones, that once again showed in practice how much they trust us. We believe that this trust is our greatest success, the greatest reward and recognition for the hard work we put in every day and we are truly grateful that it is expressed over time. Thousands of people show their trust towards our Group by placing their savings and this is both fascinating and really moving. At the same time, however, it is for us a very big responsibility and a moral commitment for the future.
