Although Greece is selling off its public assets to reduce its billions of dollars' worth of debt, reclassifying the country as an emerging market economy is deeply offensive, according to one analyst. Greece is not an emerging markets country, because it is too rich and its financial system is too developed. Greece is simply a bad credit.

How to Size an Emerging Market in Your Business Plan. In developing their professional business plans, companies of all sizes face the challenge of determining the size of their markets.
