From Post GFC Challenges to a new era of prosperity, Innovation and Modern Transformation
April 22, 2025
Greece's economy has been outpacing the Euro average since 2021 which is a marvelous reflection of the turnaround over the past four years. The economy is not only growing at a rate above its neighbors but priorities such as social housing, reducing inflation and public debt are all things Greece has prioritised over recent years.
As a company at the forefront of credit, risk, and fintech innovation, we were honored to be invited by the Consul General of Greece and the Greek Trade Commissioner for a strategic discussion on strengthening trade, financial innovation, and capital flows between Greece and Australia.
It was a privilege to meet the new Consul General and Trade Commissioner, both of whom are actively looking to connect Greek markets with global fintech and credit innovation.
Their strong interest in Argiro’s work reflects a broader recognition: That economic growth needs to be underpinned by productivity, innovation and AI across the FS industry which is why Argiro was identified as a key technology platform of interest to help cross-border growth and bring world class solutions to European markets.
The ancient Greeks gave the world philosophy, democracy, and mathematics. Today, we’re proud to bring a little AI-powered credit transformation back in return.
