The Greek government-debt crisis (also known as the Greek Depression)[2][3][4] is the sovereign debt crisis faced by Greece in the aftermath of the financial crisis of 2007–08. The Greek crisis started in late 2009, triggered by the turmoil of the Great Recession, structural weaknesses in the Greek economy, and revelations that previous data on government debt levels and deficits had been undercounted by the Greek government.[5][6][7]This led to a crisis of confidence, indicated by a widening of bond yield spreads and rising cost of risk insurance on credit default swaps compared to the other Eurozone countries, particularly Germany.[8][9] In 2012, Greece launched the largest sovereign debt default in history. On June 30, 2015, it became the first developed country to fail to make an IMF loan repayment.[10] At that time, debt levels had reached €323bn or some €30,000 per capita
