Banking
Our banking practice helps our clients navigate the complex banking legal framework and advises them on how to adapt to every changing economic, political and regulatory condition. Our team has intimate knowledge and experience of the Cyprus banking sector and on a wide variety of economic activity, providing services across the full spectrum of banking and financial matters.
Our team is a balanced mix of lawyers with contentious experience and lawyers who specialise in non-contentious work. Through the extensive collaboration with the Property, Corporate, Commercial and Regulatory Department, the team’s expertise covers retail and corporate banking activity, large scale and detailed NPL portfolio due diligence, and in general a broad range of transactional, contentious, and non-contentious matters, ranging from debt recovery and day-to-day banking issues to bank resolution and debtor restructuring, as well as from the provision of legal opinions to in-house redocumentation projects.
The team provides ongoing legal support to international banks, most of Cyprus’ banks, including two of the systemic banks, and a significant number of Credit Acquiring Companies licensed by the Central Bank of Cyprus, as well as individual and corporate clients.
