They believe that coordinated outreach to major players in banking, tech, shipping and energy is key to putting Cyprus on the radar of major Western investors.<\/p>\n<p>All three CEOs from Cyprus\u2019 systemic banks (Bank of Cyprus, Hellenic Bank and Alpha Bank Cyprus), who took part in the mission, shared positive feedback with Kathimerini. They described the trip as an excellent fact-finding and networking opportunity, while underscoring the need for more such efforts by those driving the country\u2019s business agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Cypriot banks have been working to rebuild their reputation in the US. Since 2017, they\u2019ve conducted regular visits to the US, often in coordination with law firm Pillsbury Winthrop, to showcase progress in anti-money laundering, sanctions enforcement and regulatory compliance.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- .entry-content --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n        var NXFBPixelFunc = function () {\n            document.removeEventListener(\"scroll\", NXFBPixelFunc);\n            setTimeout(function () {\n                !function (f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n                    if (f.fbq) return;\n                    n = f.fbq = function () {\n                        n.callMethod ?\n                            n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments)\n                    };\n                    if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n                    n.push = n;\n                    n.loaded = !0;\n                    n.version = '2.0';\n                    n.queue = [];\n                    t = b.createElement(e);\n                    t.async = !0;\n                    t.src = v;\n                    s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n                    s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s)\n                }(window, document, 'script',\n                    'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n                fbq('init', '109138906120213');\n                fbq('track', 'PageView');\n            }, 0)\n        };\n        document.addEventListener(\"scroll\", NXFBPixelFunc);\n    <\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ekathimerini.com\/economy\/1266595\/cyprus-woos-wall-street-investors\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cyprus President Nikos Christodoulides and\u00a0Safe Bulkers\u00a0head\u00a0Polys Hajioannou, along with members of the Cypriot government and distinguished members\u00a0of the business community,\u00a0rang the closing bell\u00a0last Friday at the New York Stock Exchange.
