You should obtain professional advice tailored to your specific circumstances before taking, or refraining from, any action.
Accessing the Website or submitting an enquiry does not create a client, advisory or fiduciary relationship with SPM. A formal engagement arises only upon the execution of a written engagement letter signed by both parties. Information you submit through the Website is treated in accordance with our Privacy Policy, but submitting it does not oblige us to provide services.
You may use the Website for lawful, personal and business-informational purposes, in accordance with these Terms and all applicable laws.

We take the protection of your personal data seriously. This Policy is intended to give you a clear and complete picture of our data practices, in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679, "GDPR") and applicable national law.

SPM is a cross-border advisory and structuring practice operating across Cyprus, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. As the controller is established in the European Union, the GDPR is the primary framework governing this Policy.

The Website uses cookies and similar technologies. Strictly necessary cookies are essential for the Website to function and are set without consent. All non-essential cookies — including analytics (Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity) and advertising (Google Ads) — are set only after you give consent via our consent banner, which is operated by Cookiebot. You may grant, refuse, or withdraw consent at any time, without detriment.
We deploy our tags through Google Tag Manager, configured with Google Consent Mode, so that analytics and advertising tags do not collect or transmit data until the corresponding consent has been granted.
A full description of each category, the specific tools, and the individual cookies (with their purposes and durations) is set out in our Cookie Policy.
We do not use enquiry data to send unsolicited marketing. If, in the future, we offer the option to subscribe to updates, we will only send such communications on the basis of your consent, and every message will include an option to unsubscribe.
