Greek council recommends shutting banks for six working days

ATHENS (Reuters) - The Greek financial stability council has recommended keeping Greek banks shut for the next six working days, a source with knowledge of the decision said on Sunday.

"Yes, the recommendation was for six days," the source said. (Reporting by George Georgiopoulos; writing by Matthias Williams)
