Eurobank Cyprus Dominates Euromoney Private Banking Awards 2025 With Four Prestigious Wins

Eurobank Cyprus has once again solidified its position as a leader in private banking, securing four top honors at the Euromoney Private Banking Awards 2025 in London.

The bank was recognized as Cyprus’s Best International Private Bank, Best for Ultra-High Net Worth (UHNW) Clients, Best of Discretionary Portfolio Management, and Best for Alternative Investments, reaffirming its reputation for excellence in wealth management.

“These accolades reflect our unwavering commitment to delivering world-class banking services and bespoke financial solutions,” Eurobank Cyprus stated. “They also highlight the trust our clients place in us and the expertise of our Wealth Management team.”

A Proven Model For Success

At the heart of Eurobank Cyprus’s success is its innovative private banking model, developed in collaboration with the Eurobank Group. Operating across four key financial hubs—Cyprus, Luxembourg, Greece, and the United Kingdom—this model provides an extensive suite of tailored investment and financial services.

“We take great pride in this recognition,” said Marios Hadjikyriacos, Head of Wealth Management at Eurobank Cyprus. “Winning for the ninth consecutive year is a testament to our leadership in private banking and our team’s relentless focus on advisory excellence.”

Looking ahead, Hadjikyriacos emphasized the bank’s dedication to continuous innovation and evolution. “We are committed to staying at the forefront of the industry, ensuring our clients receive the highest level of service and financial expertise.”

Leveraging Technology For Financial Growth

Recognizing the growing role of technology in wealth management, Eurobank Cyprus has invested in cutting-edge digital solutions, including its proprietary wealth portal. This platform empowers clients with real-time access to portfolio management tools, ensuring seamless financial oversight and strategic investment decision-making.

The bank’s comprehensive private banking services cater to a diverse clientele, offering everything from specialized lending solutions, such as Lombard investment loans, to custom investment financing across Cyprus, Greece, and the UK.

Setting The Standard In Private Banking

For over two decades, the Euromoney Private Banking Awards have been the gold standard in recognizing excellence in wealth management. These awards celebrate institutions that demonstrate outstanding performance across categories, including high and ultra-high-net-worth services, family office solutions, discretionary portfolio management, and digital innovation. By securing multiple top accolades, Eurobank Cyprus has once again proven itself as a powerhouse in private banking, setting new benchmarks in client service, financial expertise, and strategic investment solutions.

€50 Million Luxury Resort Planned For Ayia Napa

Ayia Napa could strengthen its position in the premium tourism market with a proposed €50 million mixed-use resort combining a hotel, serviced apartments, luxury bungalows and a beach club.

Aesara Investments Ltd has submitted an information form to the Department of Environment for a development to operate under the name Atlantica Wavemaster Hospitality. The project is planned for the Limnara area of Ayia Napa, along the coast south of Kryou Nerou Avenue, between the town centre and Cape Greco.

Hotel, Apartments And Luxury Bungalows

The proposed resort will include a 324-room hotel with capacity for 648 guests, alongside a condo-hotel building containing 20 one- and two-bedroom apartments. Facilities are planned to include restaurants, bars, cafés, a spa with an indoor pool, a gym, shops, a multipurpose hall, a children’s club and a cinema.

A further 33 three-level luxury bungalows, each designed for two guests and featuring a private swimming pool, are planned for the southern part of the site. A beach club with a restaurant and an outdoor pool complex covering more than 6,300 square metres will also form part of the development.

The project includes 321 parking spaces, including 12 for people with disabilities, and 14,196 square metres of landscaped green space featuring local plant species.

Seasonal Hotel Operations And Year-Round Residences

The hotel is expected to operate from March to November, with peak occupancy during the summer season. The condo-hotel apartments, meanwhile, will be available for sale or long-term rental and intended for year-round residence. Owners and tenants will also have access to the resort’s facilities, including its pools, restaurants and fitness areas.

Construction is expected to take 24 months once the required permits are secured. At the busiest stage, the project could employ around 100 workers per day.

Environmental Restrictions Near Cape Greco

The site’s proximity to protected Natura 2000 areas has prompted strict environmental requirements. The Cape Greco Special Protection Area borders the site to the south, while a Special Area of Conservation lies approximately 50 metres away.

Conditions imposed by the Department of Environment include a maximum building height of five floors, or 18.5 metres, and restrictions on permanent structures near the coastline. The project must also use spider-web type glazing and low-intensity lighting to minimise disturbance to local birdlife.

According to the project’s consultants, the design has been prepared to comply with the environmental conditions and the final report on cumulative impacts for the Cape Greco Special Protection Area. The hotel and apartment building are positioned in the central and northern parts of the plot, away from the shoreline.

Within the designated no-build zone, located 40 metres from the boundary of the beach protection zone, only swimming pools are planned. The consultants state that these are not expected to affect protected species in the area.
