Though much has been written on how corporations and financial institutions should be best governed, the governance structure of financial regulators is a rather under-researched area. The aim of the seminar is to allow for experts in the field to share their expertise and experience and allow for a better understanding of how financial regulators are governed within the European framework, discuss best practices but also shed light on how the governance structure of the local financial regulator stands now.

Our two guest speakers will be Professor Eleni-Louri Dendrinou and Mr Marinos Lambianides. Professor Louri-Dendrinou is a member of the Appeal Panel of the Single Resolution Board of European banks in Brussels. From June 2008 to June 2014, she was Deputy Governor of the Bank of Greece. She is Professor of Economics at the Department of Economics of the Athens University of Economics and Business since 2001. Mr Marinos Lambrianides is the Director of Supervision at the Central Bank of Cyprus (CBC).

Professor Stavros Zenios will be moderating the seminar. Professor Zenios is Professor of Finance at the University of Cyprus (UCY) and Senior Fellow at the Wharton School, USA. He served two terms as Rector of UCY (2002-2010) while he also served on the Board of the CBC as a Non-Executive Director.
