Granting a consistent demand from the Trade sector, the Ministry of Growth and the National Confederation of Hellenic Commerce (ESEE) have announced the development of a trade “watchdog”, soon to go online, a database of demographic, business and financial data for Greek enterprises, aiming to improve business activities and transparency by highlighting problems and providing relevant solutions. The project, which also includes a series of studies and surveys in trade, as well as a microeconomic database for business samples, is designed by the ESEE in conjunction with the Ministry of Growth and the General Secretariat of Trade, as a joint venture with ICAP.
