His refreshingly personal and efficient approach is warmly welcomed by Clients. His priorities include pro-activity, the maintenance of the highest of professional standards, and assisting Clients maximise their success by making available to them a wide range of value added services that are way beyond those of basic compliance, normally afforded.

Demetrios is a Fellow Chartered Certified Accountant, and a member of the Chartered Management Institute. He holds an MSc (with distinction/was awarded the “Best MSc Graduating Student” of his Year) in Accounting with Finance from the London South Bank University. His research dissertation was on “Merger Waves: Products of Human Collective Thinking”.

Other than studying, his hobbies include Scuba Diving (he is a qualified PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer), occasionally, flying light air crafts, and travelling. He has, recently, completed the Mankind Project’s NWTA. This was, for him, a “once in a lifetime opportunity” that not only challenged all of his limitations it helped him discover that inner space he needs for peace, tranquillity, and liberation.
