Q: What actions does Cyprus need to take to enforce the capital controls adopted with last week's legislation?

A: The Cypriot parliament passed enabling legislation last week, giving the central-bank governor and the finance minister the power to take measures to stem capital outflows. The legislation is quite generic and allows the country's top finance and monetary officials to impose measures ranging from daily ATM withdrawals to freezing domestic interbank lending, suspending direct-debit orders and converting checking accounts into time deposits. The law allows the finance minister or, when relevant, the central-bank governor, to "take whichever restrictive measure [they] consider necessary under the circumstances, for reasons of public order and/or public security." A decree enacting this bill and laying out the specific details of the capital controls is yet to be issued.
