Moody's predicts softer EU GDPs in 2013

Following comments from Moody’s about Greece struggling to be back on a sustainable debt path, also adding that they see high odds of Greek default on privately held debt, the rating agency hit back again on Thursday, this time to remind Eurozone countries that growth for 2013 is expected to be meager. According to Moody's, the Euro zone GDP is expected to rise 0.2% next year, with France GDP projection at 0.4%, Germany to show a 1.2% increase, while contractions in the tune of 4.2% and 1.5% are expected in Greece and Spain respectively. If Greece leaves the euro zone, the EU GDP would fall 4.5%, Moody’s forecasts.

An official from the Greek finance ministry announced on Wednesday plans of hiring Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley to carry out the voluntary bond buyback. He affirmed that Deutsche Bank would take on the role of the principal supervisor, but would work closely together with Morgan Stanley. This decision comes after the EU and the IMF reached an agreement on conducting a debt repurchase aimed at reducing Greek debt to sustainable levels. Details of the buyback will be announced next week by the Greek debt management agency. As it has almost run out of money, the Greek government proposed that it would borrow 10 billion euros from the EFSF, which would allow it to buy 30 billion euros worth of debt, reducing thus its outstanding obligations by 20 billion euros. Greece still hasn't decided at what price it will offer the bond buyback to private holders of bonds.-FXstreeet.com
