January 5, 2026
European and Greek banks achieved their best performance in nearly three decades in 2025, with hopes for even better results in 2026. Deutsche Bank described 2025 as a milestone year for the sector, as banks now have surplus capital. Renewed business plans for Greek and Cypriot banks are expected by March. There is a growing interest in mergers and acquisitions in the sector, with significant moves being made. Eurobank and Alpha Bank are two banks that have made strategic acquisitions in Cyprus.
