| Banks in Greece opened today for the first time in three weeks. Capital controls are still in place, and customers can only withdraw 420 euros ($456) a week, rather than the previous limit of €60 a day previously imposed. Other restrictions, such as on sending money overseas, are still in force. Greek banks were closed since June 29, after the European Central Bank capped emergency liquidity assistance. Greece made its €4.2 billion debt payment to the ECB using the €7.16 billion euro bridge loan approved last Friday. | |||||||
| The Stoxx Europe 600 index added 0.4% to 407.25, building on a 4.3% advance from last week. | |||||||
| China shares rose slightly today after authorities moved over the weekend to tighten the use of internet peer-to-peer lending by stock investors. The Shanghai Composite Index closed 0.9% higher at 3992.11, after gaining 3.5% last week. It remains down 22.7% from its seven-year-plus high hit in June. | |||||||
