What capital controls mean

We now have details of the 'capital controls' which Cyprus intends to vote into law (sometime) today, thanks to star blogger @YiannisMouzakis:

It's a remarkable set of restrictions on the usual nuts and bolts of the financial system - particularly given the final point:

    Restrictions in daily withdrawals
    Ban on premature termination of time savings deposits
    Compulsory renewal of all time savings deposits upon maturity
    Conversion of current accounts to time deposits
    Ban or restrictions on non cash transactions
    Restrictions on use of debit, credit or prepaid debit cards
    Ban or restriction on cashing in checks
    Restrictions on domestic interbank transfers or transfers within the same bank
    Restrictions on the interactions/transactions of the public with credit institutions
    Restrictions on movements of capital, payments, transfers
    Any other measure which the Finance Minister or the Governor of Cyprus Central Bank see necessary for reasons of public order and safety


 eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek:

Fuck me!  Shocked:

No restriction on turnip transactions though, good job you used up your cash on them.  :thumbsup:

Have to say you all and the Cypriots in general seem to have taken this farce so far very well  worthy:

They used to say that if the cash machines stopped then it would be 48 hours before society completely broke down.  Proved that wrong haven't you  :thumbsup:

Well, whatever, nevermind
