Currency change on the London Stock Exchange

Nicosia, 22 January 2021

Bank of Cyprus Holdings Public Limited Company ("BOC Holdings" or the "Company" and, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") announces that it has applied to the London Stock Exchange to change the currency in which the Company's ordinary shares are traded on the London Stock Exchange from Euro to Sterling, so that the ordinary shares will not be subject to the European Union (EU) Share Trading Obligation and consequently all investors (EU and non EU) can continue to trade the stock on the London Stock Exchange, following the departure of the UK from the EU. It is expected that this change will become effective at 8:00 a.m. (UK time) / 10:00 a.m. (Cyprus time) on 25 January 2021.
