Demetriades P.
Independent advice on deals, restructuring and regulation, across Cyprus and Greece.
For boards, shareholders and lenders facing a deal, debt, the regulator or the decisions that sit between them.
The work usually begins at a point of change. A family business is under balance-sheet pressure. A board is considering an acquisition or disposal. A regulated firm has an authorisation, governance or compliance question that cannot be separated from how the business actually operates. An international group is working out how to enter Cyprus or Greece, whether through an acquisition, a branch, a franchise or a distribution arrangement.
Demetriades P. is the advisory practice of Pella Demetriades. Her perspective was formed over fifteen years inside regulated businesses, first as General Counsel and later as the chief executive of a licensed financial institution. That experience shapes a practical approach: establish the position, understand what the decision will require, and remain close to the work until it is carried through.
