CYPRUS - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The area of the Republic of Cyprus under government control has a market economy dominated by the service sector, which accounts for four-fifths of GDP. Tourism, financial services, and real estate have traditionally been the most important sectors. Cyprus has been a member of the European Union (EU) since May 2004 and adopted the euro as its national currency in January 2008. During the first five years of EU membership, the Cyprus economy grew at an average rate of about 4%, with unemployment between 2004 and 2008 averaging about 3%. An overextended banking sector with excessive exposure to Greek debt resulted in a contraction in economic growth. Two of Cyprus' biggest banks were among the largest holders of Greek bonds in Europe and had a substantial presence in Greece through bank branches and subsidiaries. Following numerous downgrades of its credit rating, Cyprus lost access to international capital markets in May 2011. The economy contracted by an accumulated 8.2% between 2009 and 2013 and is not expected to return to positive growth before 2015. Unemployment is currently over 17% and expected to reach 19% in 2014. In July 2012, Cyprus became the fifth eurozone government to request an economic bailout program from the European Commission, European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund - known collectively as the "Troika". Shortly after the election of President Nicos ANASTASIADES in February 2013, Cyprus faced an economic crisis and agreed with the Troika to a $13 billion bailout that included losses on uninsured bank deposits. The bailout triggered a two-week bank closure and the imposition of capital controls, some of which remained in place through 2014. Cyprus' two largest banks merged and the combined entity was recapitalized through conversion of some large bank deposits to shares and imposition of losses on some bank bondholders. The Troika conditioned the bailout on progress in financial and structural reforms and privatization of state-owned enterprises. Cyprus has downsized and restructured its banking sector significantly. Three positive reviews by the Troika since May 2013 indicate that Cyprus’ bailout program is on track with a fourth review scheduled in May 2014. In October 2013, Cyprus completed preliminary appraisal of hydrocarbon deposits in its territorial waters, which revealed less than anticipated natural gas reserves. Additional exploration drilling is likely to continue in 2014-2015.

Unable to comment

Given that the present is an International Business Company - IBC (Offshore Company) and most of its activities are carried out outside Cyprus, coupled with the fact that no further detailed financial information is available, we feel unable to express a safe and reliable opinion on their creditability and commercial morality of the subject.

Financial Statement

 

Please note that the latest financial details were not available at the file of the company at the official companies' registry house; as the law provides for all companies. No financial details were available from other public sources.

 

 

 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

 

 

 

 

 

The subject is an International Business Company - IBC (ex - Offshore Company) registered in Cyprus on 16/07/1993.

 

IBC companies, being covered by the law of confidentiality, may use nominee shareholders that hold the shares in trust for the beneficial owners. Until recently beneficial owners were made known only to the Central Bank of the Republic of Cyprus, which used to grant permission for the company’s registration in Cyprus. After Cyprus accession into the EU, this practice changed. Beneficial owners of an IBC are now known to the lawyers and / or auditors that undertake the registration of such companies in Cyprus.


In the past IBC’s (ex offshore companies & offshore branches) used to benefit from a corporation tax rate on their profits of 4.25%. However, according to new tax legislation which has been in effect since the 1st January 2003, there is no longer a distinction between local companies and International Business Companies (IBC’s. The net profits of all companies registered in Cyprus are taxed at the rate of 12.5% effective since 1st January 2013.


Furthermore, in the past the law required IBC’s (ex offshore companies & offshore branches), beneficial owners to be non-Cypriot residents and the business activities to be carried out, outside of Cyprus only. This law has changed. IBC entities may have activities worldwide, including in Cyprus. However, in order for an IBC entity to have activities locally, their Memorandum and Articles of Association should provide for that. Most of the IBC entities that were registered before the change of the law have already proceeded with the amendments in their Memorandum and Articles of Association.

The new provisions provide exemptions from tax of income related to Intellectual Property, specifically:

1. 80% of worldwide royalty income generated from Intellectual Property owned by Cypriot resident companies (net of any direct expenses) is exempt from income tax.

2. 80% of profit generated from the disposal of Intellectual Property owned by Cypriot resident companies (net of any direct expenses) is exempt from income tax.

3. There is no defense tax on dividends for non-Cypriot residents.

Any expenditure of a capital nature for the acquisition or development of IP is claimed as a tax deduction in the year in which it was incurred and the immediate four following years on a straight-line.

All the above exemptions are also available for IPs acquired or developed before January 2012.

We contacted the company and talked with Ms. Marilyn Gorcsi, company director, who informed us that she was very busy and couldn't answer any questions so she suggested we try to call her later. We tried to call her at a later time and she was in a meeting.

The information provided in this report was obtained from the Official Companies Registry and from a previous interview with Ms. Gorcsi. Please note that Ms. Gorcsi refused to release any information about the financials of the company at that interview.
