Chart 5 compares the overall and Greek success rates per ERC call and shows their evolution. In the Starting
Grant calls, the overall and Greek success rates displayed a significant increase from the first to the third call
where both success rates reached their maximum of 16% and 8%, respectively. In the Advanced Grant calls,
the overall and Greek success rates do not follow the same pattern: while the overall success rate reached its
maximum in the 2
nd
call (16%), the Greek success rate attained its peak in the fourth call (8%). The Greek aver-
age success rate is about three times lower than the total average success rate and one of the lowest among
ERA countries. However, in the last two calls of both funding schemes, this ratio has significantly decreased,
from three, to about two times lower.
