Average monthly social security benefit in Greece at 726.70€; 2.486 mln pensioners in population of 11 mln

The average primary monthly pension in Greece, as of September 2020, reaches 726.70 euros, while the monthly supplementary pension – for eligible beneficiaries – is 194.37 euros, according to figures released on Tuesday by the labor and social insurances ministry.

One eyebrow-raising figure is the number of pensioners in the country, which totaled just shy of 2.486 million people out of a total population of roughly 11 million.

The number of new pensioners was nearly 19,400.
