Ioannis Petri: Sophic's €100 million milestone confirms that people are seeking out new ways to invest
Press Release 13:28 - 16 June 2025

“For years, access to low risk and meaningful investment opportunities in Cyprus was largely reserved for professionals or institutional players,” said Ioannis Petri, Managing Director of Athlos Capital, the regulated company behind the Sophic Platform.
“We created Sophic to change that, and this €100 million milestone confirms that people are seeking out new ways to invest beyond traditional bank deposits,” Petri continued, commenting as part of Sophic's announcement that total purchases of financial instruments through its platform have now exceeded €100 million, marking a significant milestone for both the company and the broader investment landscape in Cyprus.
As noted in a relevant press release, this achievement reflects Sophic’s impact in reshaping how people invest, particularly non-professional investors who, until recently, had limited access to low-risk investment options such as government bonds and T-Bills of countries with high credit ratings. By removing complexity, lowering barriers, and offering a fully digital, user-friendly experience, Sophic has empowered thousands of individuals to take control of their financial future, many of them investing for the first time.
Sophic’s success signals a growing demand for accessible, transparent investment tools as it has rapidly gained traction with both local and international users looking for straightforward ways to invest in financial instruments, the press release went on to note.
With more innovations on the horizon, Sophic remains committed to its mission of financial inclusion: “We’re just getting started. We’ll continue building tools that empower everyone, not just a privileged few, to grow their savings and plan for the future. And we’ll keep doing it with the same clarity, simplicity, and passion”, Petri explained in his statement.
