ATHENS (Reuters) – The Institute of International Finance said on Saturday that talks on a Greek debt swap deal were continuing and its chief’s departure from Athens was scheduled and not unexpected.
Charles Dallara, who negotiates a Greek debt swap in the name of creditors, had “longstanding personal appointments” out of Greece, the IIF said in a statement.
Greek government officials said late on Friday that talks in Athens were expected to continue on Saturday.
“Talks are continuing,” the IIF said in a statement. “A team of experts representing the Steering Committee remains in Athens and will be working with government officials on many aspects of the PSI.”
