‘High likelihood’ of Greek capital controls, bank deposit freeze: Moody’s

“Moody’s Investor Service downgraded its outlook for the Greek banking system to negative from stable, which it said reflected: ‘the significant deterioration in banks’ funding and liquidity since December 2014, with deposit outflows estimated at more than 30 billion euros ($33.3 billion), or 18 percent of total deposits, over the past five months.’  These pressures are unlikely to ease over the next 12-18 months, Moody’s said, ‘and there is a high likelihood that capital controls and a deposit freeze will be imposed.’  The credit ratings agency said the negative outlook also took into account the downward revision of Moody’s 2015-16 GDP (gross domestic product) forecasts for the country.”
