Investment Funds Bolster Financial Stability Of Affordable Housing Initiative

by THEFUTURE.TEAM

Private Sector Collaboration And Financial Innovation

In a decisive move toward sustainable, affordable housing, influential industry leaders endorse the involvement of major investment funds, including the Social Security Fund and assorted private investment schemes, to finance pivotal projects in Cyprus. Championing this approach is the Cyprus Real Estate Appraisers Association, whose President, Polyas Kourousidis, asserts that this model is essential to maintain both the viability and long-term stability of such projects.

A Strategic Blueprint For Affordable Housing

The initiative is set to deliver 500 New Affordable Homes with accessible rental rates, directly addressing one of the era’s most acute social challenges. By effectively leveraging state assets to foster accessible housing development, the initiative positions itself as a critical public policy response.

Mitigating Fiscal Pressure Through Private Investment

As the construction responsibilities will be assumed by the private sector, the financial strategy underpinning the project is carefully structured to avoid additional burdens on the state budget. This innovative approach not only mitigates the fiscal impact on public finances but also underscores a commitment to sustainable economic development.

Commitment To Technical And Scientific Excellence

The Cyprus Real Estate Appraisers Association stands ready to offer comprehensive technical and scientific support, ensuring that the project aligns with the highest standards of modern, efficient, and socially equitable development. In doing so, the initiative sets a precedent for future affordable housing projects across the region.

SEC Drops Lawsuit Against Gemini: A Major Turning Point In Crypto Regulation

by THEFUTURE.TEAM

SEC Dismisses Legal Action Against Gemini

The Securities and Exchange Commission has formally withdrawn its lawsuit against Gemini, the prominent crypto exchange founded by twins Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss. The move follows a joint court filing in which both the regulator and Gemini sought dismissal of the case that centered on the collapse of the Gemini Earn investment product, a debacle that left investors without access to their funds for 18 months.

Settlement And Regulatory Reassessment

In a significant development, a 2024 settlement between New York and Gemini ensured that investors recovered one hundred percent of their crypto assets loaned through the Gemini Earn program. The legal reprieve comes on the heels of actions initiated by New York Attorney General Letitia James, who accused Gemini of defrauding investors.

Political Backdrop And Industry Implications

This dismissal reinforces a broader trend of regulatory leniency toward the crypto sector noted during the Trump administration, which saw the SEC dismiss, pause, or reduce penalties in more than 60 percent of its pending crypto lawsuits. Meanwhile, Gemini’s recent public offering filing underscores its ambitions to solidify its status as a major player in the evolving digital asset market.
