Abstract
An international study commissioned by the European Commission has been recently completed on the subject of public financing and charging practices in EU seaports. This paper relates to this study by focusing on Greece and highlighting the special characteristics of the Greek port system and of Piraeus in particular, Greece’s largest port. The perspectives of port governance and of public financing and charging are looked at, together with financial flows to and from the port. Finally, the prospects for the future are discussed and some conclusions useful for policy formulation are attempted.
