Professional Services

With around 80% of Cyprus’ economy based on the provision of services, this sector is one of the most important in the country.

Professional services are a cornerstone of the economy and continue to show growth year on year. Manned by an experienced and highly qualified contingent of professionals, this sector underpins many of the most rapidly growing areas of Cypriot business, from company registration, to finance, insurance, investment funds, ship management and others. The expertise of the country’s lawyers, accountants, auditors and other specialists, often European or US trained, offer full and efficient services in all aspects of company law and tax planning, and the world’s leading accountancy and consultancy firms are all present on the island, as are all the leading insurance, ship management and trust companies. While professional services costs are generally lower than in Western European locations, the level and quality of service is not.
