The Social Insurance Scheme of Cyprus and the Economy: Caught by the Bell?

In recent times and over the last couple of decades, Cyprus has faced major challenges; demographic, socioeconomic, a critical financial drawback in 2013, a world health crisis in 2020, the FDI boom in recent years, and sanctions on foreign citizens, just to name a few. All that in the face of a country where populations are still living divided for over half a century now (the major political issue). This article, however, aims to focus on a single issue which we believe plays a critical role in the level of the country’s social welfare status daily. Yet, we have the feeling that through the years, it has been overlooked and paid much less attention to, than what it deserves by the mass majority of stakeholders. This issue is no other than the country’s Social Insurance Scheme.

Η Σημασία της Συνεργασίας Δικηγόρων και Συμβούλων Αφερεγγυότητας στις Τραπεζικές Υποθέσεις

Η διαχείριση των τραπεζικών υποθέσεων που αφορούν προβλήματα δανεισμού και αφερεγγυότητας αποτελεί ένα εξαιρετικά περίπλοκο πεδίο. Στη διαδικασία αυτή, η συνεργασία μεταξύ νομικών συμβούλων και συμβούλων αφερεγγυότητας είναι καθοριστική για την επιτυχή εκπροσώπηση και υποστήριξη των πελατών. Από τη μία πλευρά, οι δικηγόροι φέρουν την ευθύνη της νομικής προστασίας και της διασφάλισης των δικαιωμάτων των πελατών τους, ενώ από την άλλη, οι σύμβουλοι αφερεγγυότητας εργάζονται με στόχο τη βιώσιμη λύση των οικονομικών προβλημάτων. Αυτή η συνεργασία μπορεί να αποτελέσει τον ακρογωνιαίο λίθο για την εξεύρεση μιας ολοκληρωμένης λύσης.
