PLEASE SUBSCRIBE!!!!! nwotruth.com www.spiegel.de www.ft.com Greece replaced its debt management chief with a former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. investment banker, as declines in the countrys bonds roil European markets. Petros Christodoulou took over from Spyros Papanicolaou as head of the Athens-based Public Debt Management Agency, the Finance Ministry said yesterday in an e-mail. Christodoulou held positions in global markets at Credit Suisse Group AG, Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase & Co. before joining National Bank of Greece in 1998, according to a company filing. The incoming guy is walking into a tough mandate, said Charles Diebel, senior interest-rate strategist at Nomura International Plc in London. Such is the sentiment towards Greece at the moment, a new broom could be a positive. Goldman Sachs helped the Greek government to mask the true extent of its deficit with the help of a derivatives deal that legally circumvented the EU Maastricht deficit rules. At some point the so-called cross currency swaps will mature, and swell the country’s already bloated deficit. Thank you everyone for subscribing!
