Insurance Solutions for a Secure Future

In a constantly evolving world, the worst thing you can do is remain stagnant! I understand that especially in Greece, Finance and investments have a bad reputation—and with good reason.

However, the only one who leaves no shadow behind is the devil. Everything in life has a dual nature, including investments. Fear-based thinking can only lead to negative outcomes, while the answer to fear is knowledge and all those values that make us truly “human.” This is why at THEOLOGOS EBEOGLOY INSURANCE SOLUTIONS, we are here to guide you through the financial labyrinth of investments so you can be free to pursue your dreams.

​

As an example, let’s assume that someone invested for 35 years, from January 1986 to December 2020, depositing 200 euros at the end of each month—a total of 84,000 euros. Regardless of market conditions, they would have amassed 419,000 euros, while if they had kept the same amount in a bank, they would have only 100,000 euros. If they didn’t invest anywhere, they would have lost 84,000 euros.

​

Which scenario would you rather identify with? Clearly with the investor who accumulated 419,000 euros! But fear is holding you back. To break this fear with knowledge, it’s worth mentioning that the investor who earned 419,000 euros lived through the following events:

• September 1981: The beginning of the economic recession in the USA, which forced the then-chairman of the Federal Reserve, Paul Volker, to raise central interest rates to nearly 20% to combat runaway inflation.

• October 1987: The Black Monday crash dropped the Dow Jones by more than 22%, dragging down stock markets worldwide.

• October 1989: The start of another international recession, which peaked in July 1990 with Iraq's invasion of Kuwait.

• January 1994: The “Great Bond Massacre” caused losses exceeding $1 trillion in the market.

• August 1998: The Asian financial crisis forced the so-called “Asian Tigers” to seek IMF support, ended Japan's economic rise, and led to the collapse of the famous hedge fund Long-Term Capital Management.

• October 2000: The bursting of the “dot-com bubble” wiped out 75% of the Nasdaq index within six months, caused thousands of tech companies to go bankrupt or be bought out, and revealed the accounting scandals of Enron and Worldcom.

• May 2007: The beginning of the Great Recession, the most significant economic crisis in decades, which originated in the US real estate market and played a major role in Greece’s bankruptcy in 2009.

• May 2015: Three consecutive “flash crashes” in May, August 2015, and January 2016, which exposed several problems in the functioning of the “digital” markets.

• March 2020: The sudden appearance of the COVID-19 pandemic caused panic in the markets, forcing central banks and governments to take unprecedented liquidity measures.

• January 2021: The UK officially exits the European Union.
