ATHENS (Reuters) – Greece’s central government reported a lower-than-expected primary budget deficit in the first 11 months of the year, finance ministry data showed on Thursday.
The deficit stood at 1.126 billion euros ($1.20 billion) in January to November, beating the government’s target of a 2.239 billion-euro deficit.
The primary budget excludes debt servicing costs.
