Privatization receipts are a crucial input for the Greek debt sustainability model. Greece has a substantial portfolio of assets. The latest published Troika analysis estimates further proceeds from privatizations of up to €45bn over time (although the new bailout program might well stretch them over a longer time period or, most likely, reduce the overall amount). Bond market participants seem somewhat skeptical at this stage, given limited granularity on the details.
