MIDA Registry, Airbnb Crackdown, Titan’s French Expansion

in

The new MIDA (Real Estate Ownership and Management Registry), launching in March, aims to combat tax evasion by revealing undeclared properties and rental income. It also links the National Cadastre with TAXIS to monitor agricultural subsidies—highlighting how delayed state modernization has exacerbated crises like the recent OPEKEPE scandal. Meanwhile, Greece’s Airbnb restrictions—extending the license freeze to all major cities from March 1—show limited effectiveness: short-term rentals in Athens rose 3% in 2025, with national revenues hitting €1 billion. Titan Group strengthens its Western European footprint by acquiring French cement firm Vracs de L’Estuaire, boosting low-carbon solutions capacity and logistics reach across Normandy.
