Back to 1 year ago, Jul-2014, EURGBP was 0.790 - 0.800. It is now 0.713 significantly down more than 10%. It is mainly because of intermittent quantitative easing by ECB and Greek election on Jan-2015 which resulted SYRIZA's win.
Greek referendum, Yes or No?
Greek people are voting for whether they accept the proposal from the creditors, European Commission, ECB and IMF.
The poll indicates "Yes" is slightly supported than "No". We won't have no idea of the result most likely. Leading party, SYRIZA, has basically support "No", particularly Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis.
