[01] Negotiations with institutions on second review to start at the end of the week

The reason for the delay is IMF representative Delia Velculescu's later arrival in Athens.

The date of the beginning of the negotiations which at first will run for ten days is expected to be finalised on Monday, Finance Ministry sources said.

The government said that its intention is for the second review to have been completed by the end of November so that decisions on the debt issue are taken at the December 5 Eurogroup, after which Greece can participate in the European Central Bank's QE.

The agenda of the negotiations includes changes in labour relations, fiscal figures (new state budget, mid-term framework 2016-2020 and primary surpluses), privatisations (regional airports, ports etc), the improvement of business climate (deregulation of civil engineers, licencing, etc), the banks' boards, the discussion on the draft law for outside court compromises for non-performing business loans, the draft law on political parties' financing and other relevant issues.

[03] Alternate FM Xydakis stresses need for a strong Europe

Xydakis was speaking at a conference of the representative office of the Church of Greece to EU on "Challenges and Opportunities for Europe and Greece today."

"We must insist on the idea of a strong Europe, peace and stability, against the pressures of fragmentation behind the increased responsibility of the member states. We need to re-invent Europe, make it attractive and convincing for their citizens and to inspire confidence and faith to the institutions and to the people ", he said.

The Alternate Foreign Minister suggested the change of the neoliberal economic model and the need Europe to stand by the side of the countries of the Middle East. Finally, he praised the initiative of the representative office of the Church of Greece to the EU to hold this workshop, noting that it proves the political, and social sensitivity, and the sense of obligation to contribute to a discussion and to a spiritual alertness.

[04] Athens issues sharp reply to Turkish president's 'provocative' references regarding borders

"To publicly stir up historical and especially border issues that the Treaty of Lausanne has settled finally and irrevocably, establishing objective facts binding for all, is provocative and undermines regional stability," a foreign ministry announce-ment said.

"Respect for international law and international treaties demands the formulation of responsible positions, keeping away from outdated revisionism. Thrace is Greek, democratic and European. Any other thought is inconceivable and dangerous," it added.

[05] ANEL leader Kammenos to meet Norwegian counterpart Soreide

Kammenos, who is also Defence Minister, will meet with his Norwegian counterpart Ine Erksen Soreide.

[06] New Democracy submits amendment for first home foreclosure suspension

"Covering once again the failure of the government to deal with the problem that it has created, New Democracy submitted an amendment to parliament to suspend first home foreclosures for debts to the state until the end of 2017," it said adding the three prerequisites:

- the property serves as the main house of the family

- the monthly income does not exceed 13,900 euros for unmarried, 23,600 euros for married couples, increased by 5,700 euros for each child

- the objective value of the property does not exceed 180,000 euros for unmarried persons, increased by 40,000 euros for married persons and 20,000 euros per child and up to three (3) children

[07] Greece needs to restore confidence in economy

In his address, Mihalos underlined the need for a change in austerity policies implemented on European level in the last few years and stressed that these policies were intensifying economic recession and threatened small- and medium-sized enterprises throughout the European Union.

Mihalos, who is also deputy president of Eurochambers, urged representatives of the chamber and business world in Europe to forge a strong alliance towards a coordinated intervention to national governments in the EU for a turn towards growth policies and taking specific measures to really support SMEs.

In an interview with Euractiv, Mihalos said that the last thing that the Greek market needed today was another election, which would probably will not deliver a strong government and therefore lead to other elections. "This, in my opinion, will cause total chaos in the country," he said.

Mihalos noted that the main goal for the private sector and the government was to restore confidence and credibility in the Greek economy. He stressed that an immediate solution to the Greek debt problem was necessary and said that the German government should not use German general elections as an excuse to postpone discussions on Greek debt.

[08] Top administrative court to hold third session on TV licenses on Tuesday

The judges last Friday failed to conclude a vote on the admissibility, merits and legal interest of the TV stations, which will precede any discussions on the actual tender.

Broadcasters Alpha and SKAI, as well as the companies Alter Ego and ITV CP have submitted new applications for interim measures on the wealth declarations of the contestants.

[09] Trade union front PAME rallies against government's planned labour reforms

Speakers at the rally said they demand a restoration of the minimum wage to 751 euros per month, of collective labour agreements, of the Christmas and Easter bonuses and an increase in pensions and benefits.

[12] Central banker urges debt relief for Greece, speaking at SETE conference

Stournaras noted an increase in non-performing loans in the tourism sectors, noting that they had reached 54.3 pct in the first half of 2016 and were thus significantly higher than the level for the economy as a whole (45.1 pct). The phenomenon should be investigated and dealt with, he said.

At the same time, he pointed to a number of promising signs indicating a gradual recovery in the economy in 2016, forecasting that this will continue in 2017 and 2018, provided that the reforms and privatisations agreed with the institutions are adopted and loans are disbursed promptly.

With respect to the tourism sector, Stournaras said it needed to adapt its growth model and seek to upgrade both the product and make it more 'specialised' to offset trends for lower tourism revenues in spite of increased numbers. This would mean an improvement of infrastructure, for which he urged exploitation of state property and settling outstanding issues relating to spatial planning to attract new investments.

Among others, the central banker called for a reduction in the cost of airplane travel to Greece, to make the tourism product more competitive, as well as improvements to regional airport, stronger competition between airlines, more emphasis on marinas and other marine tourism infrastructure and better port facilities to encourage cruise tourism.

[13] Greece and FYROM sign MoU on linking natural gas grids

Based on the MoU, DESFA will develop and operate the Greek sections of the pipeline, with a length of around 5 km, linking Nea Mesimvria, Thessaloniki, with the Greek-FYROM border in Evzoni. In FYROM, the pipeline section will have a length of 110 km. The two companies will set up a joint group of officials to draft a technical survey on the project sustainability.

Energy Minister Panos Skourletis, commenting on the MoU said the planning is part of a framework of building confidence measures between the two countris and to an energetic and multi-dimensional energy policy of Greece. "This significant project serves the goals of European Union to diffentiate sources and roads of natural gas, boosting price competitiveness and strengthening energy security in the wider region. Greece is called the play a leading role as an energy hub in the Balkans, the Mediterranean and Southeastern Europe," Skourletis said.

The memorandum of understanding was signed by DESFA chairman and chief executive Sotirios Nikas and MER's representative K. Miladinov.

[14] Greece to attract more tourists thanTurkey in 2016

Recent developments in Turkey "send" millions of tourists to Greece, he said. Arrivals in Greece are expected to reach 27.5 million this year (of which 2 million correspond to cruise ships), while Turkey is estimated to only receive 26 million tourists compared to 35-36 millions last year.

Andreadis estimated that tourist arrivals in Greece are expected to reach 35 million by 2021 bringing revenues of 19-20 billion euros. "In 2010 tourism revenues reached 10 billion euros, 14.2 billion euros in 2015 and this year are expected to be higher than the previous year. This translates into an around 40 percent increase in a period of time when the Greek economy shrank by almost 25 percent."

Moreover, he said that despite the high performance of tourism, investments remain at low levels.

Regarding taxation, he said that VAT is a discouraging factor for business activating in the tourist sector.

[15] Greek management consultants more pessimistic in Q3

Presenting the quarterly survey of the Greek Management Consultants Confidence Index (GMCCI), SESMA 's president Vasilios Regouzas said "a slight deterioration of expectations recorded in the third quarter of 2016 seems to be the result of the negative impact from measures introduced after completion of the first review of the Greek bailout program, combined with an excessive delay in completing the review which led the economy into recession, although smaller than initially expected". He noted that the economy showed signs of recovery in the third and fourth quarter of 2016, with a positive growth rate of GDP that "I hope it will have a positive impact on management consultants' expectations".

The Greek government must implement all those things agreed with its creditors on structural measures and a second review of the program must be completed by the end of November in order to boost economic recovery and improving expectations by both enterprises and consumers, Regouzas said. "Once more it must be understood that growth must be supported on healthy macro-economic data and a positive climate in the market. The government needs a series of events and comments to deliver positive messages to the market," he added.

The average balance of positive/negative answers on price levels, growth rate, unemployment, private investments and exports was 9.2 pct at the end of September from 4.6 pct in June and 6.6 pct in September 2015. This development reflected a deterioration in private investments, unemployment and price changes, while on the other hand economic growth and exports recorded the most optimistic expectations.

[16] Cosmote an official partner of SETE

This strategic partnership highlights the growing importance of IT and communication infrastructure for tourism, a sector which contributes, directly and indirectly, around 25 pct of the country's GDP.

Cosmote, through its innovative solutions Cosmote Business IT Solutions, covers with efficiency the specialized needs of the tourism sector. These solutions aim to strengthen the smooth and efficient operation of hotels and all enterprises in the sector, improving customer experience and contributing in reducing operating spending.

Mihalis Tsamaz, chairman and chief executive of OTE Group, commenting on the agreement said: "IT and communication technologies can create significant growth prospects in the tourism sector and give a boost to the Greek economy. We are proud to have the chance to support our touristic product through SETE to the benefit of our country".

Andreas Andreadis, president of SETE said: "The Federation's goal is to highlight the leading role of tourism in the Greek economy, contributing to the quality upgrading and supporting competitiveness in the sector. In this effort, we warmly welcome Cosmote as an official partner".

[17] Amendment paves way for the sale of 5.0 pct stake in OTE

The amendment is expected to be voted by the assembly on Tuesday and it s part of prior actions agreed for the disbursement of a 2.8 billion euros sub-tranche to Greece.

[20] Alipay card to be launched in Greece soon

Speaking to ANA, Hatzitheodosiou said that according to information from ongoing negotiations with Greek banks the process was right on track, with not legal or legislative hurdles on the way, while the Greek government and the Chinese side were continuing talks to begin the operation of the platform the soonest possible.

The aim of such a cooperation is for Chinese tourists or businessmen visiting Greece to have an Alipay account, making purchases in Greek stores through this mechanism. Aliday began an effort to gain access in European market in spring 2016. It is a platform similar with PayPal, with the difference that an Alipay account is used also for purchases not only online, through a barcode.

Alipay will have to cooperate with a Greek bank or a Greek payment system.

[21] Greek households cut spending on groceries

IELKA said the results of a household budget report by Hellenic Statistical Authority for 2015, recently released, added to the findings of similar surveys by IELKA on the prevailing situation in food consumption in Greece.

Monthly spending by households on groceries goods fell by 16.3 pct in the 2009-2015 period, while spending on food fell by 12.5 pct over the same period. In 2009, an average household spent 444 euros on groceries goods per month, while in 2015 spending was 371 euros.

Spending on groceries, food and restaurants fell 23.4 pct in the 2009-2015 period, with the exception of 2010 when spending on groceries grew. In all other years, spending fell by 0.6-6.3 pct annually.

However, although spending on groceries fell in value, spending as a percentage of total household purchased grew, from 21.5 pct in 2010 to 26.2 pct in 2015, an increase of 4.7 pct.

A big part of a reduction in spending accounted to offers and discounts offered by suppliers, while another significant part accounted to a change in consumer habits towards cheaper and alternative products, smaller packages and exploiting private lable products.

The survey showed that nine out of 10 consumers saved money through offers, while an average weighed saving was 11.2 pct.

Average monthly saving through offers surpassed 25 euros per household, or 300 euros annually.

In 2010, average monthly spending in supermarkets was 250 euros, falling to 220 euros in 2015. For 2016, analysts expect a slight decline in groceries spending, although smaller compared with 2015. The officials expect sales in the September-December period this year to fall compared with the same period in 2015, with supermarket sales expecting to decline 2.4 pct on average, for a decline in household spending by around 1.9 pct.

[22] Talent holding a challenge for companies

The research, conducted at an international level with the participation of 3,791 companies operating in 8 European countries, focuses on the impact of personal qualities in the ever-evolving work environment while recognizing the distinct abilities that characterize each generation (Baby Boomers, Generation X & Millennials ).

Moreover, it identifies future challenges for corporate talent development practices as to the characteristics and approaches that are associated with it. Additionally, it examines the level of knowledge of European businesses in relation to the importance of continuously evolving capabilities which are structural for their future growth.

The main conclusions of the survey are:

- Key competences recognized both by medium enterprises and by smaller enterprises, while recognition is not limited only by the human resources department.

- The ideal profile varies and is now based on combining skills such as pragmatism, flexibility and team spirit. Problem solving, commitment to a goal and cooperation are skills most linked to talent.

- Personal skills play an important and timeless role in all generations. The "digital skills" is inextricably linked with the generation of Millennials. The emphasis on the development of 'digital skills' will greatly enhance the competitive advantage of enterprise for innovation.

- Regardless of the recognition of the competence competitive blend onto which the talent is evaluated, the holding and strengthening of talent is a major challenge for the future.

- The "liquidity" -the adaptability and evolution in a changing work environment is the most important success factor for talents.

The research highlights the personal skill that a talent must profess. This kit confirms the heterogeneity of an ideal profile that combines skills such pragmatism, flexibility in the working group and cooperation.

Thus, solving the problem (69%), adherence to the target (58%) and cooperation (57%) are the three most desirable personal skills for the talent required by the companies. Countries such as Italy, Spain, Czech Republic and Hungary put the "problem solving" in the first place.

More than 50% of respondents claim that there are personal skills that correlate exclusively with a particular generation.

[28] NGO, bank, start crowd funding campaign to save the ancient theatre of Cassope

Using the bank's crowd funding platform www.act4greece.gr, the NGO Diazoma and NBG urge people to donate money to the "Ancient Theatre of Cassope" action, hoping to raise the target amount of 80,000 euros. The campaign has so far raised 3,393 euros and will be open until 31.12.2016.

The ancient theatre of Cassope is built in the southern foothills of Zaloggo and overlooks the peninsula of Preveza, the Ambracian Gulf, the Ionian Sea, the island of Lefkada and the Acarnanian Mountains. It was originally built in the 3rd century BC with a seating capacity of 6,000. It hosted music events, theatre performances and political gatherings of the Cassopean League.

Diazoma is a non-profit association set up in 2008 with the purpose of researching, studying, protecting, showcasing and, if feasible, using again ancient theatres and other venues for events, such as ancient odeons and stadiums. It is supported by academics, intellectuals, artists and members of the public determined to take the fate of these monuments into their own hands and give dynamic assistance to the State and its relevant services in the effort to bring ancient theatres into modern-day life.

The association has designed its first Cultural Itinerary to cover the ancient theatres of Epirus and the theatre of Cassope is one of the stops on this route.

[29] Strokes linked with myocardial infarction can be very dangerous

The myocardial infarction is one of the main factors for thromboembolic strokes, says cardiologist and vice president of the Institute For The Study And Education On Thrombosis And Antithrombotic Therapy Giorgos Andrikopoulos. The stroke that is linked with the myocardial infarctions can be very dangerous because it fosters the creation of large thrombus inside the heart chambers. The patients have double possibilities to end with permanent disabilities and is more possible to die in comparison with patients that suffer from strokes that are not related with myocardial infarction, underlined Andrikopoulos.

A Greek Cardio Institute research showed that 3 percent of the population over 14 years old in Greece suffers from myocardial infarction which is interpreted in 300,000 persons.

Myocardial infarction is responsible for 15 percent of the15 mln stroke incidents recorded every year worldwide. In Greece, as scientists say, the problem will increase in the next years because after the age of 75 the frequency of myocardial infarction episodes exceeds 10 percent.
