Tο κέντρο διαμαντιών ξανά στο επίκεντρο

Ένα κέντρο διαμαντιών μπορεί να φέρει την άνοιξη στο οικονομικό τοπίο της Κύπρου; Αυτό φαίνεται να υποστηρίζουν ειδικοί στο νέο τεύχος του Gold που κυκλοφορεί στις 14 Μαΐου.

Barrionuevo, επικεφαλή της ομάδας που επιλήφθηκε της αναδιάρθρωσης του εθνικού χρέους της χώρας ύψους 104 δις  ευρώ, της μεγαλύτερης και ποιο επιτυχημένης αναδιάρθρωσης μέχρι σήμερα.

Αναλυτικά, στο νέο τεύχος του Gold:
