    GREECE paid about 750 million euros (S$1.12 billion) to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Monday, a day before it was due, two Greek finance ministry officials told Reuters on Monday.

    The payment averted the prospect of default that had shaken financial markets. "The order to pay the IMF has been executed," a senior Greek finance ministry official said.
