Founded in 1899 and headquartered in Nicosia, Bank of Cyprus (“Bank” or “Group”) is the leading banking and financial services group in Cyprus, with significant market shares across all businesses.

The Group provides a wide range of financial products and services which include retail and commercial banking, finance, factoring, investment banking, brokerage, fund management, private banking, life and general insurance.

The Group has 136 branches, of which 130 are in Cyprus, 1 in Romania, 4 in the United Kingdom and 1 in the Channel Islands. Bank of Cyprus also has representative offices in Russia, Ukraine and China. 

Following the Eurogroup decisions for its recapitalisation in March 2013, the Group has been proceeding fast with the implementation of its restructuring programme.

A major turning point was the Bank’s €1 billion share capital increase, completed in September 2014, which involved high quality institutional investors such as EBRD and Wilbur Ross. This significantly strengthened the Bank’s capital position and ensured that the Bank passed the 2014 ECB Comprehensive Assessment in October 2014.
