Since May 2010, the euro area Member States and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have been providing financial support to Greece through an Economic Adjustment Programme in the context of a sharp deterioration in its financing conditions.

The Eurogroup agreed to activate stability support to Greece via bilateral loans centrally pooled by the European Commission. At year-end 31 December 2014 the total amount owing to Ireland on the Greek loan facility was €347,437,121.03.

The National Treasury Management Agency has advised that none of the Exchequer cash and related financial asset investments are invested in Greek sovereign debt.
