Household expenditure: changes in the EU Member States – Greece

Greece stood at -16%, ranking after Malta, Croatia and Spain., and was followed by Cyprus.

In 2020, household consumption expenditure in the EU decreased by an unprecedented 8%  compared with 2019, according to Eurostat. In fact, all the EU Member States recorded a decrease in household consumption expenditure.

This is the largest annual reduction recorded since the time series started and it is due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Social distancing measures, government restrictions imposed on the movement of people and non-essential economic activities severely affected household consumption expenditure.
