New bank begins share offering

The launch ceremony for the share offering to establish the Pancyprian Cooperative Bank will take place today at 11am at the central offices of the Cyprus Greek Teachers’ Organisation (POED).

The new Cyprus cooperative bank is launching a public offering of up to 42 million new shares in Cyprus, each with a nominal value of €1.

The shares will be issued at a price of €1 each as part of a cash capital-raising initiative, following a decision by the company’s General Meeting on 1 December 2025.

Share issue could increase to 100 million

If the offering of up to 42 million new shares is oversubscribed, the issuer’s Administrative Committee, which serves as its Board of Directors, reserves the right to extend the issue to meet demand.

The total number of shares may be increased to a maximum of 100 million, corresponding to the company’s authorised share capital.

Of the total share issue, 60% will be allocated to individuals and 40% to Cypriot companies.

The share offering marks a key step towards the establishment of the new Cyprus cooperative bank and the development of its capital base.

ON THIS DAY: The Phantom of the Opera premieres (1986)

On 9 October 1986, the Phantom of the Opera premiere took place at Her Majesty's Theatre in London's West End, marking the beginning of one of the most successful productions in musical theatre history. Created by Andrew Lloyd Webber and starring Michael Crawford as the mysterious Phantom and Sarah Brightman as Christine Daaé, the musical would go on to captivate audiences around the world with its haunting melodies, elaborate staging and dramatic love story. From Gothic novel to West End sensation Based on Gaston Leroux's 1910 novel, The Phantom of the Opera tells the story of a disfigured musical genius who lives beneath the Paris Opera House and develops an obsessive love for a young soprano. Andrew Lloyd Webber transformed the Gothic tale into a lavish stage production, combining romance, mystery and tragedy with a powerful orchestral score. The musical introduced songs that would become theatre classics, including "The Music of the Night", "All I Ask of You", "Think of Me" and the dramatic title number. Directed by Harold Prince, with musical staging and choreography by Gillian Lynne, the original London production featured elaborate costumes, atmospheric sets and a spectacular falling chandelier that became one of the show's most recognisable moments. Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman's defining roles Michael Crawford's performance as the Phantom became one of the defining roles of his career, earning him widespread acclaim for his portrayal of the troubled character. Sarah Brightman, who was married to Lloyd Webber at the time, originated the role of Christine Daaé, bringing her distinctive soprano voice to the production. Their performances helped establish the musical's international reputation and set the standard for generations of actors who would later take on the roles. A record-breaking theatrical phenomenon The Phantom of the Opera premiere began an extraordinary run in London's West End. The original London production reached 13,629 performances before being interrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020. The musical returned to the West End in 2021 and has continued its run. Its success also crossed the Atlantic, with the Broadway production opening in New York in January 1988. The show went on to become Broadway's longest-running musical, closing in April 2023 after 13,981 performances. Over the decades, The Phantom of the Opera has been performed internationally, translated into numerous languages and seen by millions of theatregoers. Forty years of The Phantom of the Opera On 9...
