Endowment & Charitable Trust Publications Guide

Endowment & Charitable Trust Publications Guide

The administration, leasing, or liquidation of assets belonging to public benefit foundations and national endowments is governed by a strict legal framework in Greece. The publication of an endowment tender notice is not a standard commercial action, but a statutory obligation of transparency, directly monitored by the Ministry of Finance's Department of Endowments or the respective Decentralized Administration.

In this guide, we outline the step-by-step procedure and the mandatory documentation required for newspaper publication, ensuring you circumvent bureaucratic delays and compliance failures.


Mandatory Documentation for Publication

To execute the publication of the tender in certified newspapers, the trustee or legal counsel must assemble the following instruments:

1. The Core Tender Document

The complete, unedited text of the tender (in Word or PDF format), detailing the terms of the bidding process, the property description, financial guarantees, and submission deadlines.

2. Board of Directors (BoD) Resolution

The official excerpt of the foundation's Board minutes, formally ratifying the execution of the auction and establishing its specific legal directives.

3. Supervisory Authority Clearance

The official approval letter or non-objection certificate issued by the competent public authority (Ministry of Finance), pursuant to the Greek Code of Public Benefit Properties (Law 4182/2013).


The Publication Roadmap Step-by-Step

The standard operational workflow involves the following milestones:

  • Drafting & Clearance: The Board drafts the statutory terms and obtains the necessary clearance from the supervising Ministry.
  • Journal Selection: The law frequently mandates insertion in both a nationwide daily political newspaper and local press outlets corresponding to the asset's location.
  • Timeline Compliance: A strict legal interval (typically 20 or 30 clear days) must be maintained between the press publication date and the live bidding session.
