COVER STORY

26 | Professional Services in Cyprus: The Future of the Sector and the Need for a New Growth Model
The professional services sector currently faces numerous challenges beyond those caused by COVID-19, including developments around Double Tax Treaties with key countries and the EU’s push towards the harmonization of national tax systems.
