Key developments in recent months include: * The planned power plant and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) project in the western port of Astakos was cancelled in late-October 2010 but did not prompt a downward revision in BMI's infrastructure forecasts. The project was priced in as an upside risk, rather than a forecasted growth in energy and utilities infrastructure industry value. However, the cancellation is a blow because the project represented the first major foreign direct investment (FDI) in Greece for several years. The cancellation highlights that in spite of the government's rhetoric on fasttracking major foreign investments, the opaqueness of government jurisdiction and political risk remain obstacles. * The collapse of the project also fuels scepticism about the government's claims that it could entice as much as EUR45bn (US$62.78bn) * The government is planning to award transport contracts worth a combined EUR650mn (US$906.81mn) * In an embarrassing but unsurprising development in late-January 2011, Greece lost its right to host the 2013 Mediterranean Games. The International Committee of Mediterranean Games rescinded Greece's hosting rights on the back of its fiscal and economic turmoil, after the government slashed the budget for the games by two-thirds to US$175mn from an original US$490mn. The committee argued that the cuts prevented the country from preparing its infrastructure to the required standards. With eurozone economic recovery weaker than expected in the final quarter of 2010, BMI sees significant downside risk to the Greek construction industry's near-term return to growth of 1.2% in 2012, extending the sector's contraction by an additional year.
