Finance ministers from eurozone nations are to meet on Monday to discuss giving Greece's second bailout final approval.

The Eurogroup, which includes eurozone finance ministers, the president of the European Central Bank and European Commission chiefs, meets in Brussels.

Spain's financial status is also likely to be on the agenda.

Earlier this month Spain said it would miss a deficit target of 4.4% of GDP for 2012 agreed with Brussels. It now expects the deficit to be 5.8%.
