ATHENS, Greece --
Greece's international debt inspectors are due in Athens, as the financially-challenged country faces another test of market sentiment with the auction of 26-week treasury bills.
The heads of delegations from the European Central Bank, International Monetary Fund and European Commission were due in Athens Tuesday to complete an inspection so Greece can receive the fifth batch of bailout loans from a euro110 billion rescue package.
The visit comes amid mounting concerns over the country's ability to successfully implement the reforms it has promised.
Greece is seeking to raise euro1.25 billion ($1.8 billion) in T-bills, a day after it saw its credit rating downgraded further into junk status by the Standard & Poor's rating agency.
