The CSE is suffering great losses on Monday, with investors focusing on the recapitalization of the banks and the government’s effort to secure cash from the pension funds of the semi-governmental organizations.
Bank of Cyprus is under strong pressure in the aftermath of the publication of the Central Bank’s letter, requiring a renewal of the Board members.
Meanwhile, the House Finance Committee’s session on the state borrowing from the pension funds is in progress. General Manager of the Finance Ministry, Christos Patsalides stated that “if the state fails to secure €250-€300 million in the next few days, it will go on to a default”.
The negative climate in the market is further boosted by the problems of Orphanides Supermarkets.
Today, the company suspended the operation of 10 super markets due to a shortage in products while it expects banking injection to continue.
