  "account": "Greece's stock market is being upgraded from an emerging market to a developed market by index providers FTSE Russell, S&P Dow Jones Indices, and Stoxx, effective Monday. This change will allow Greek stocks to re-enter indices such as the Dow Jones Developed Markets Index and the Euro Stoxx 600, potentially attracting around €1 billion in additional investment. The upgrade is expected to bring significant benefits to the Greek market, including increased access to institutional capital and improved liquidity. The MSCI is also expected to make a similar upgrade in May 2027, which could further broaden the investor base for Greek stocks.",
  "summary": "The Athens Stock Exchange will be reclassified into the group of developed markets this Monday. The reclassification changes above all the rules of the game for institutional capital.",
