Financial Performance of Political Parties in Cyprus
May 27, 2025
The report from the Audit Office indicates that political parties in Cyprus showed profits between 2016 and 2021, despite controversial funding from companies linked to corruption cases. DISY, AKEL, and DIKO reported high surpluses, while contributions from legal entities were mainly from the Cyprus Investment Program. State funding was significant for all parties, and many contributions came from small donations. Transparency in the financing of political parties is a key issue highlighted by the report.
