My apologies for the length of this week's Monday Briefing
which reflects the complexity of events taking place in Greece. As
usual, we cover the macroeconomic side of this story here; for
advice on the potential business risks associated with a country
exiting the euro area please contact my colleagues, Rick Cudworth
or David O'Neill, in Deloitte's Risk Advisory Practice, at

Last week Greece's Prime Minister, Alexis Tspiras, rejected
the latest bailout offer by Greece's international creditors
and sought endorsement of his decision in a referendum, due to be
held next Sunday, 5th July. Mr Tsipras appears to be calculating
that a rejection of the proposals by the Greek people will
strengthen his hand in negotiations with Greece's creditors.
There is, of course, a fair chance it could have the opposite
effect.
