Can I retain some rights associated with the assets I give away? Can I reserve a right of reclaim?

A gift with usufruct is very common and recommended, from both legal and tax standpoints. A change in the matrimonial regime is very rare in Greece and the legal regime is separate property. The spouses can opt for the community property regime via a contract but since this is considered a submission, it is rarely used.
