Germany's total exposure to Greece in 2015 estimated at 90.6 billion euros in 2015, of which 53.4 billion euros in loans are not repayable till 2020 and 2024
07/06/2015
Standard & Poors estimate of the total exposure of Germany to Greece is about 90.6 billion euros. Since the bulk of this or 53.4 billion euros under bilateral and EFSF loans that do not begin repayment under 2 programs till 2020 and 2024 the losses are seen as manageable. This say experts could be covered by normal fiscal revenues over several years without having to raise taxes. This strengthens Angela Merkel's hand in any negotiations with Greece following the "no" vote in Greece on July 5, 2015.

The balance sheet of Greece's banks and recapitalization needs in Juy 2015- 139 billion euros in deposits, 2 billion euros in cash, and 116 billion euros in ECB central bank aid
07/04/2015
In the Cyprus crisis overhaul of the banks required depositors with over $100,000 in bank accounts to take a 50% haircut. Deposits less than $100,000 were safe. Greek banks will need ECB funding or European creditors to recapitalize the banks before banks can open because cash at banks is dropping below 1 billion euros just before the referendum of July 5, 2015.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
