The fact that the regulations in the financial sector are becoming more and more complex and are not easy to comply with doesn’t need any more vivid evidence nowadays. Companies are obliged to conform to increasingly stringent rules both on national and international levels. In these conditions it is important to be sure that your business purposes comply with all requirements imposed by the applicable legislation and that their fulfilment will not accrue any undesirable risks.

The effective laws on financial supervision and the implementation of the European directive "Markets in Financial Instruments Directive" (MiFID) into the Cyprus and Greek legislation do have a major impact in the financial sector.
