In the pre-1974 period Greece’s state-led development strategy based on import substitution and credit allocation produced strong growth (7% with manufacturing on the average at 11.4% annually), combined with low inflation (4%) and small balance of payments deficits (2.1% of GDP) until 1974. From 1974 until 1995 the economy showed a completely different picture. GDP annual growth rate averaged 2%, manufacturing growth slowed to almost zero, annual inflation averaged 18%, and the average external deficit, as a share of GDP, doubled. This performance was much worse than that of its neighbors and the other countries of the European Union (EU). The economic slowdown can be attributed almost completely to two major factors, namely the decline in the share of total investments in GDP, and the decline in the productivity of new investments.

  • A Study on the Corporate Social Responsibility Reports of Greek Companies and the Use of Alternative Evaluation Methodologies
    Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Environmental Economics and Investment Assessment, 28-30/05/08, Cadiz, Spain, p.p. 255 - 262 A study on the corporate social responsibility reports of Greek companies and the use of alternative evaluation methodologies Konstantinos Aravossis1, Nikolaos Panayiotou1 1National Technical University of Athens, School of Mechanical Engineering, Sector of Industrial Management & Operational Research, Greece Abstract Over the last decade there has been an apparent shift from adopting more responsible business practices. To demonstrate that they “care” about people and the environment they operate in, organisations have taken different courses of action. The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) reports which are annually published, in addition to the traditional annual financial reports, are considered as one of the vehicles used to demonstrate how caring they have been over the ending financial period and how they intend to continue to be even more proactive in the future. This study examines the adoption of CSR practices in Greece as these are described by companies in CSR reports. The CSR disclosures are further classified and the results are analysed and interpreted in order to draw conclusions and to predict the future of CSR in Greece. Keywords: CSR, Greece, Case Study 1. Introduction: CSR & CSR Reporting Over the last decade there has been an apparent shift from adopting more responsible business practices (Hancock [2]) as a result of regulatory citations, consumer complaints, and special
