Greek banks must find up to 14.4b euros after ECB stress test

Four major Greek banks must find up to 14.4 billion euros to survive potential economic shocks, the European Central Bank said yesterday, releasing the results of an in-depth financial health check.

Weakened after years of recession, Greece's banks took a further battering this year when the government pushed the country to the brink of a euro exit in a standoff with Berlin and Brussels over the terms of Greece's international bailout.                              -- Afp
