National Economy and Finance Minister Kostis Hatzidakis highlighted the main planning of his ministry for 2025 in a post on TikTok on Tuesday.
The message was titled “In 2025, We Are Implementing Our Five Key Commitments” and made the following points:
“At our treasury, we will save many millions of euros for taxpayers, because thanks to our prudent management, we can now borrow much more cheaply. We continue the fight to further limit tax evasion with digital tools, such as the Digital Customer List, Digital Waybill, Electronic Invoices, and the extension of myDATA. We are turning our attention even more to competitiveness, extroversion and growth and that’s why we decided to reduce social insurance contributions by a further percentage point. It is the year when a great battle will be fought for the utilization of important resources through the NSRF and especially the Recovery Fund. Meanwhile, a new law on the Capital Market will be passed, to give more impetus to the [Athens] Stock Exchange. We are accelerating the utilization of the real estate owned by the state. [Through] the concessions of the small regional airports, using the same model as for the larger ones, which have been granted as concessions and are an example of success. We will strengthen our social policy further. The minimum wage will rise even more, pensions will grow further, while in health we will have a significant increase in available resources: a 75% increase from 2019 and, thanks to the Recovery Fund, dozens of hospitals and health centers will be renovated throughout Greece.”
