Maintaining a strong shipping portfolio, which at the end of 2021 amounted to 3.3 billion dollars, while it is maintained at consistently high levels in 2022 as well, Eurobank leads the Greek banking system in shipping lending.
Christina Margelou holds a degree in Business Administration from Deree College and an MSc in Shipping, Trade and Finance from Cass Business School. In the three decades of her career, she held positions of responsibility in specialized shipping units of Greek and international banks (Barclays Bank PLC, etc.).
