Matsis currently serves as chairman of the board of directors of the Cyprus Investment Promotion Agency/Invest Cyprus, as chairman of the board of directors of the Cyprus Institute of Neurology and Genetics, and as chairman of Point Nine Data Trust.
Commenting on his new role, Matsis says: “I have long admired MUFG as a trusted advisor to its clients, providing them with bespoke solutions across services to meet and exceed their operational needs. I look forward to working closely with John and the rest of the team to build out our new Cyprus office during this period of rapid firm growth.”
John Sergides, CEO of MUFG Investor Services, adds: “Yannis’ impressive track record of successfully building and managing global debt capital market teams will be invaluable as our new office looks to continually support our clients in both Europe and around the world.”
