Recently, the firm advised a multinational corporation's Cyprus entity on converting from a private entity to a public entity and consummating the business combination agreement by reviewing the various agreements that the Cyprus entity must enter into, and provided regulatory advice from a Cyprus law perspective in order for it to be listed on the NASDAQ. The team also advised a major maritime organisation on Cyprus's EU-approved tonnage tax scheme, which provides significant savings to ship owners, charterers, and managers.
