Yiannos Trisokkas attended the Third Plenary Session at BestLegal’s Second Annual Conference of Legal Practitioners held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Limassol, Cyprus. Trisokkas delivered a detailed presentation on Cyprus’s Citizenship by Investment and Permanent Residency programmes and also analysed the impact of the Cypriot government’s latest legislative reforms on the programmes, as well as their benefits.
Yiannos further discussed several other alternate citizenship and residency programmes offered on the international stage, with a particular focus on Europe by presenting a comparison of how such programmes fare against each other in the European continent, their policy making process and challenges, as well as EU member states’ procedures for citizenship acquisition. Alternative citizenship was noted as a solution to fundamental problems in generating and conducting business, whilst successful methods in avoiding common pitfalls from state mechanisms and law firms’ promotion of such schemes were also explored.
