Greece will request an extension of its loan agreement from its euro zone partners tomorrow morning, a Greek government official said today. Athens was initially expected to ask for an extension today. "The request will be submitted tomorrow," the official said on condition of anonymity. The new government refuses to seek an extension of the EU/IMF bailout programme, which is due to expire on Feb. 28, because of its demands for austerity policies. Instead it wants to extend an agreement on loans. (Reuters) For more visit www.businessworld.ie
