Freedom24 - Trading on stock exchanges

Freedom24 Executive Director Evgenii Tiapkin spoke to Kathimerini about Cyprus's position among European financial centres, the reforms that would matter most for its competitiveness and Freedom24's long-term commitment to the island. After a decade of building European operations, he offers an honest assessment of what is working, what needs strengthening and why the window for action remains open. On the island's underlying advantages, Tiapkin pointed to a combination few jurisdictions can match: "Cyprus offers something that few countries can compete with: full EU membership, a legal system based on English law, a high quality of life and a business community that is sophisticated and internationally interconnected. The island has managed to successfully reinvent itself at every critical turning point in its modern history. I have no doubt that it is capable of doing so again." At the same time, he was direct about the priority for reform: "Improvement in speed and predictability would significantly strengthen Cyprus's position in business, without requiring any radical change in direction." Speaking about Freedom24's trajectory on the island, Tiapkin reaffirmed the company's commitment: "We are here for the future and investing accordingly. We are developing a super-application that will make Freedom24 a complete financial ecosystem for private investors across Europe and this is being developed here in Limassol." Alongside the platform development, the company continues to support economic and business forums in Cyprus and is actively involved in business education, culture and sport on the island. 🇨🇾 🔗 Read the full interview in Kathimerini
