In late June 2015, another incarnation of Greece’s economic crisis began when Greek banks closed on June 29 amid fears that Greece was heading for a euro exit. On July 5th, the Greek people voted ‘No’ against more austerity in exchange for bailout cash in a July 5th referendum. Since the vote however, Greece went on to accept more harsh austerity measures from creditors to save the country from bankruptcy.
