An investment expert, speaking in Beijing on 10 November, said the Athens has introduced a new investment law to create a business-friendly environment, including providing tax incentives and subsidies in such areas as renewable energy, logistics, tourism, food and beverages. A fast-track law has also been put in place to help cut red tape, fight bureaucracy and facilitate investment. Not much detail for the moment on public sources.
