As markets prepare for the prospect of a Greek exit from the euro, one prominent British economist says Greece could face a military coup if it abandons the single currency.
Financial markets have been sold down amid speculation Greece will have to leave the eurozone and abandon its debts.
But Sav Savouri, chief economist at London based hedge fund Tosca Fund, says the country has little option but to remain in the 17-member currency bloc because the situation will be very bleak if it leaves.
Mr Savouri had a grim view of the outlook for the country if Greece returned to the drachma.
