Cyprus’s Finance Ministry said it is committed to ensuring the stability of the island’s financial sector and will work closely with the European Commission, European Central Bank and International Monetary Fund.

“Banks’ capital needs will be assessed after a thorough examination of their assets and in respect of EU state aid rules,” according to an e-mailed statement from the Nicosia-based ministry. [Bloomberg] – Ekathimerini.com
