The Association of Cyprus Electronic Money and Payment Institutions (ACEMPI), part of the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Keve), held its annual general meeting earlier this month in Nicosia.

According to an announcement issued on Thursday, ACEMPI chairman Ioannis Georgoulas delivered a detailed review of the association’s activities over the past year and outlined strategic priorities for 2025.

Moreover, he underlined the importance of ACEMPI’s consistent presence in public dialogue and its growing engagement with regulators.

These include the Central Bank of Cyprus (CBC), with which discussions were held on long-term regulatory planning.

It was also mentioned that ACEMPI recently published the first Electronic Money Glossary – an initiative designed to simplify sector-specific terms and improve financial literacy.

The association actively contributed to both European and national consultations, including on the forthcoming AML/CFT Directive and the evolving corporate governance framework.

ACEMPI also supported several high-profile events in Cyprus, including ‘The Economist’ conference, while members of the board of directors represented the association in key discussions and public forums.

Furthermore, Georgoulas presented the association’s strategy for 2025.

The strategy focuses on strengthening ACEMPI’s institutional role, launching educational initiatives on compliance and innovation, and building partnerships with both European and Cypriot organisations.
