When Greece’s stock market shut for five weeks in 2015 as capital controls gripped the country and its banks buckled under the debt crisis, a return to developed-market status looked remote. Shares of Greek banks plunged 94% that year and liquidity evaporated, leaving the market smaller than Egypt’s or Morocco’s. A decade on, Greece is edging back toward the developed world. With MSCI Inc. closer than ever to upgrading the country from emerging-market status, companies say Greek stocks are well positioned to compete for global capital as the economy emerges as the euro area’s biggest turnaround story. “Greece is growing faster than Europe, the banking sector is more concentrated and Greek lenders have strong profitability,” said Iason Kepaptsoglou , the head of investor relations at Alpha Bank SA, one of the country’s four systemic banks. “You are a very small fish, which is not very good, but in a huge ocean.” MSCI is considering reclassifying Greece as a developed equity market and will announce its decision by March 31. It demoted Greece to emerging-market status in 2013 at the height of the sovereign debt crisis — the first time a developed nation had been downgraded. At one point, the country even risked being pushed into MSCI’s “standalone” category, reserved for small or hard-to-access markets such as Jamaica or Botswana. About $18.3 trillion tracks MSCI’s equity benchmarks. Its country classifications have outsized influence over global portfolio allocations and, as seen in Indonesia earlier this year, can pressure financial regulators . Rival index providers FTSE Russell and S&P Global Ratings already classify Greece as developed. Market participants had until March 16 to provide feedback to MSCI on Greece’s upgrade, according to an MSCI spokesperson, who declined to comment on the substance of those responses. For Greek companies already courting international investors, the move could broaden the audience. Lamda Development SA, which is transforming the c...

India’s state-run refiners, eager for prompt crude supplies, are holding off purchases of US-approved Iranian oil and products as payment, shipping and insurance hurdles complicate potential transactions, according to people familiar with the matter. The US issued its third waiver for restricted oil on Friday, allowing purchases of Iranian oil already on the water in the Trump administration’s latest effort to cool rising prices with additional supply. Washington had earlier issued two such measures, covering seaborne Russian oil. The one-month grace period for Iran’s crude has encouraged representatives of National Iranian Oil Co. and intermediaries to sound out large Asian buyers, but they have been met with hesitation. India’s refiners echo concerns in China, where state-owned China Petroleum & Chemical Corp., more commonly known as Sinopec, said on Monday that it would try to avoid Iranian shipments, in part because the Trump administration’s one-month waiver leaves too narrow a window for delivery. Read More: China State Refiners Explore Iran Oil Deals After US Waiver Refiners in India, the world’s third-largest oil importer, have been pitched Iranian cargoes of crude oil and liquefied petroleum gas, a fuel widely used for cooking and in short supply across the country, the people said, asking not to be identified as the negotiations are not public. Iran was once a key supplier to India — at the peak, it accounted for 11.5% of total imports, according to data intelligence firm Kpler — but purchases stopped in 2019 due to US-imposed sanctions, and refiners have been risk-averse since. That long gap has slowed due diligence and delayed progress on potential purchases, the people said. Issues like shipping and insurance are unclear, and refiners are uncertain about payment mechanisms, currency, insurance and even whether Iran-linked vessels would ultimately be accepted at Indian ports, they added. As a result, there has been little progress even in advancing conve...
