Dynasty LATSIS one hundred and first
From the legendary founder of the group Yiannis Latsis as his son Spiros
"The destiny wanted the Bank of Athens, which began as the Bank Cardassilaris the Tower of Elis, in 1920, to return after so many years in the ownership of shareholders who have common ancestry with the founders. An unknown detail revealed Mr George Gondicas, president of the bank Eurobank, which purchased from the Korean Hanwha of the 58.05% stake in Bank of Athens, and concerned what else strange coincidences or games in history.
The latest acquisition of the Latsis group of highly distinguished in the 1990 general banking and finance, having significantly alter the investment options and business guidelines started off from the same soil in which took its first steps and the Mr. John Latsis, the founder of a family financial empire that came to be included along with members of the lists of the strengths of the world. Recently, the American magazine «Forbes» said in a enviable position (101th) list of the son of the founder, the 51chrono Spyros Latsis. The net value of assets and in accordance with published data of the American magazine, is 3.1 billion dollars, or if you prefer an account in our national currency, close to 1 trillion drachmas.
But the value of the property referred to by the name of his firstborn son harmoniously combined with the Greek flag to the corresponding page «Forbes» Internet is not a personal matter. Anyway, whatever the name of "owner" was the first father, now son billions always belong to a family group, individual properties which are lost in a maze of holding companies and trust with its headquarters in Luxembourg , Liechtenstein or the Channel islands.
What controls which of the family members of John Latsis's father, mother Erieta, the son of Spyros and two daughters, Marianna and Margarita did not play very big role. Besides the total power counts. The rest is just ... details that create feelings of curiosity to ordinary mortals. Beyond that, everything seems to be arranged, powers known as the area of responsibility of the individual and personal relationships monakrivou son and two daughters of the founder at optimal levels. "Spiro" says Athens who are knowledgeable in the family affairs "over-protected and fond the two sisters. The same sources claim that "Spiro does not have to talk about his love for his sisters. A nod, a gesture, a look, even during a board meeting where they usually meet family members, is sufficient to illustrate the sentiments that fed for one another. "
The professional obligations and ... km did not allow the frequent family gatherings. That is also why when given the opportunity pursue "celebrations and festivals. The last big occasion was the marriage of Mrs Margaret Latsis with Mr. George Katsiapi Ekali. Mr. John Latsis that night Saturday 29.6.1996 dressed in white, electric blue bow and tissue was found in the arms of two daughters of the youthful vigor to welcome guests high politicians, businessmen, colleagues and friends and their filepsei the jokes and the amazing indiscretion, a central element of "external appearance" who always acted as a competitive advantage. Even if addressed to a planitarchi like George Bush or an iron lady as in Lady Thatcher, who welcomed in his own special way to the palace Bridgwater House in the heart of London to the historic meeting of leaders of NATO (5 July 1990), a meeting which was signed the death certificate of the Cold War. But Mr. Yiannis Latsis as tolerant greeted with the same ease and the last leader of the "Red Empire", Mikhail Gorbachev and stylish for the Russian action, his wife Raisa in September 1993 for a mini cruise in the Aegean with the 'Alexander' Prince of the royal comforts and values.
Spyros Latsis live permanently in the French-speaking Switzerland Geneva, where are concentrated many of the activities of the group but is present anywhere in the world calls him a duty to Athens for meetings of the Board of Eurobank, in London for shipping matters or for investment in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet territory in New York, ports and shipyards in the Far East.
The older sister, Mrs. Marianna Latsis, living permanently in Athens and beyond all other business activities, is the soul of the Latsis Foundation has succeeded in bringing in "Pallas Athena" the former hotel strike Kifissia some of the most loud the names of art, intellect and culture in the late 20th century. The passage, for example, Marlon Brando from Kifissia made around the world.
As for the youngest daughter of Mr John Latsis, Mrs. Margaret Latsis, has chosen to live in Monaco, next to her husband Katsiapi Mr. George, who heads the financial services company EFG Eurofinanciere d Investissements SAM a company that acts as a the many investment arm of the group and soon becomes a bank.
The three succeeded by his son and two daughters of Mr. John Latsis have their own separate interests in personal and professional level are in many cases if not all of the other side of the secular requirements of the international scene. Spyros Latsis, for example, like being able to reassure his immediate colleagues in Athens and London, can easily be incorporated into the category of "alcoholics work": work tirelessly, no holidays and never be fond of a simple , almost ascetic, lives with his wife Dorothea and their children.
But the faces of real life, even the richest people in the world do not find welcoming space in magazines and the windows of the TV. Truth be told, not a workaholic billionaire sells. The American journal «Forbes», for example, in a brief statement of Mr Spyros Latsis prefers to make specific reference to the 397 foot yacht "Alexander", which became much more sparkle than the fact that the deck, in the luxurious lounges and the glamorous "bedroom" of hospitality, for the second honeymoon, the heir to British throne Charles and Princess Diana unlucky.
"Seating operator, naturally banker" is characterized in a recent article in U.S. magazine «Forbes» today's "skipper" of the group. Truth or lies? Things are always somewhere in the middle. The youngest Latsis is the one who pushed the group into new business and investment, expanding the boundaries and scope of initiatives and measures to the requirements of a globalized market. At the same time that he was cut out without the tradition established by his father to sea gave new content in shipping and commercial activities. The fleet slowly rebuilt from scratch and the refinery Petrola modernized to meet the new competition formed the domestic market following the entry of Aramco in the nearby refinery and import a part of shares of public company oil in the Greek stock market.
The group has ordered the Hyundai shipyard in Korea seven new ships type «product carriers» a capacity of 46,000 tons each. The cost of construction of each estimated at around 220 million U.S. dollars and funding is done by banks, as they say, 'queue to lend the Latsis, clearing near their supplies. If today the bankers make the tail, it was not so 50 years ago, when Mr. John Latsis began dealings with the banks for the purchase of boats. Then the site was only the National Bank and the loans were given did not exceed a few thousand dollars, as in the case of the small cruise ship "Fairy" left literally era and the lounges have passed all politicians without exception the first postwar decade.
The newly built ships will begin to arrive by next year in 1999 received the first five ships and two others in 2000. The seven ships, they say shipping cycles Miaouli coast, part of a long-term program to restructure the fleet but overall the group's activities at sea and transport. The stories of ships carrying crude oil only, Libya and Saudi princes are now in the distant past. Ships arriving from Korean shipyards will go to the free market for maritime transport and whoever gives the most fares.
In the same way restructuring is also the site of oil. The refinery in Saudi Arabia may have been sold at good prices but there is always Petrola area of Eleusis and huge, by Greek standards, investment program. Back in Petrola an increase of the share capital by 200 billion drachmas.
