I live in Cyprus and of course there is concern regarding the banks. The last government left the situation like this.
I have not witnessed any disturbances at ATM machines but I am sure that tempers are high. At the moment, we are waiting to see if the Russians or even the church will bail us out.
As far as we have been led to believe the British Forces here will be reimbursed, it is the civilians who will be out of pocket, the shops and business' under threat and bank employees without a job.
Cyprus has been pushed into a corner and sadly, many more countries are likely to follow.

I have emailed a complaint to the EU complaint department, included the links above and may i suggest reading those news pages posted above i concluded both Putin and Xi have very likely suggested what the outcome w
should be e.g. best as i can tell, steal money from Russians legally banking money in intended to be changed to Bad Cyprus Banks, if that is the case, the deal should be stopped as it undermines the rule of law.
If the Russian deposits are legal then the EU is aid and abetting a crime, e.g. stealing peoples money

Everyone in the EU is represented by an MP, issues should be taken up by your EuroMP, you can find out who they are on google.

All monies deposited in banks in Cyprus were guaranteed up to 100k, that is why there was an uproar when the first draft wanted to take money from accounts with less than that. Anyone who had more than that invested must have been aware that only the first 100k was 'safe' and it would have been risky to keep more than that in one account. Banks are set to re-open tomorrow and I'm sure the queues will be enormous, I feel sorry for the bankinfg staff as they will bear the brunt of peoples' frustration, sadly it looks like the staff in my bank will be losing their jobs once it is all sorted out.

Anyone may lodge a complaint with the Commission against a Member State for any measure (law, regulation or administrative action) or practice attributable to a Member State which they consider incompatible with a provision or a principle of EU law.

I have been reading some EU regulations that dated back as far as 1993 and were pertaining to deposit guarantees, including some sort of guarantee for depositors compensation.
e.g. the 5 Billion deposited with Greece (given just a very quick read) under EU regulations it appears likely probably qualified for reporting and protection under the EU regulations, however i did just browsed through the texts. Probably needs proper legal scrutiny before making this statement.
However based on what i think i read I wonder if panic has over-shadowed reliance upon EU's own rules and regulations, as the 5 billion deposited in Greece may well have been protected...

OK. For the moment the complaint have been registered and admitted.

If Cyprus Effect doesn't infect the spanish economy perhaps the EU could start to sanction my country economically, for the multiple infractions of the european directives.

Today the newspapers explains that similar measures could be imposed in Spain and Italy.

Our economy minister said days ago that deposits of less than 100,000 euros will not be affected by these measures. But it is not the first time that rectifies.

Today risk premium rises until 362.

Today construction in Spain is very uncertain investment. Properties are losing its price and many building projects are stopped.

It doesn't means that this lasts forever, it's just that people has no money to buy and they have no credit from the banks.
