1. Introduction

In 1993 and 1995, the House of Representatives in Cyprus enacted the Cyprus Securities and Stock Exchange Laws and Regulations, respectively, under which the Cyprus Stock Exchange ("CSE") was established. The authority regulating the CSE is the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission ("CySEC"), which was established by virtue of the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (Establishment and Responsibilities) Law of 64(I) 2001. The general mission of CySEC is to exercise effective supervision in order to ensure investor protection and healthy development of the securities market.

The first trading session on the CSE was held on 29 March 1996. On 1 October 2009, the emerging companies market of the CSE (the "Emerging Companies Market"), which is a market in the form of a multilateral trading facility, began its operations.

Company Redomiciliation To Cyprus: The Tax Case, The Decision And The Process

Cyprus company redomiciliation transfers a foreign company's registered office to Cyprus without dissolving it, preserving legal identity, contracts, assets and trading history.

From Cybersecurity To Supply Chain Sovereignty In CSA2: The Spotlight On Suppliers

In January 2026, the European Commission unveiled its plan to overhaul the EU's Cybersecurity Act, a proposal now known as CSA2. It's the natural next step in a story that began years earlier with the EU's 2020 "5G Security Toolbox" - a set of voluntary recommendations encouraging Member States to be cautious about certain telecom suppliers. That voluntary approach produced patchy results: by most accounts, fewer than half of EU countries had actually acted on those recommendations.

Jurisdiction In Cross-border Litigation: Insights From A Recent Cyprus Court Decision

It is not uncommon for high-value commercial disputes to give rise to jurisdictional issues, particularly where they involve multiple defendants domiciled in different jurisdictions or where one or more parties have entered into agreements containing jurisdiction clauses. The reason is straightforward: if the Court determines that it lacks jurisdiction to hear the matter, the proceedings may effectively come to an end at the outset. Accordingly, the issue of jurisdiction must be determined by the Court as a preliminary matter and at the earliest stage of proceedings.
