UK government tells firms to check Greeks can still pay them


    LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's government suggested on Monday that businesses trading with Greece should check whether they will get paid, after the Greek government imposed capital controls.

    In a notice published on the government's website, the finance ministry and the business ministry also said British branches of Greek banks were not directly affected by capital controls but might face disruption.

    "If your business trades in Greece your first step should be to find out whether customers can still pay you when expected," the British government said.
