Chairman’s Message
I would like to thank my fellow committee members for the honour of electing me as Chairman of STEP Cyprus. It is my intention to continue from where my predecessor Yiannis Demetriades left. Yiannis made an excellent work and took active and initiative role in putting forward STEP’s views on issues of major concern such as AML, UBOs registers, taxation of trusts and others. With the support of all, we will continue this effort.
During my tenure, it is my priority to strengthen our continuous development programmes and in particular, those targeted to young professionals. We have an obligation to educate, train, develop and keep informed our young professionals to enable them to fulfil their role to the highest professional standards. I look forward to the cooperation and collaboration of all our members.
