Greece's state budget has recorded a significant primary surplus of €3.64 billion for the January to May 2026 period, according to provisional data released by the Finance Ministry. This figure exceeds the government's official target by €2.4 billion. The announcement was made on June 15, and it highlights a robust performance in fiscal management during the initial part of the year.
The increase in the primary surplus is attributed to higher-than-expected tax revenues, which were up by €258 million or 0.9% compared to the target. Various reports confirm that these provisional budget execution figures indicate a positive trajectory for Greece's fiscal health, as authorities aim to maintain financial stability while addressing economic challenges.
