The Investment and Development Bank has extended the right to a moratorium in order to mitigate the adverse effects of the Crown virus on the situation in the economy of the Republic of Srpska, based on a decision by the Government of Srpska.
In order to exercise this right, credit users must contact a commercial bank through a credit facility.
Last week, the Investment and Development Bank approved a three-month moratorium on principal and interest repayments for more than 30 direct placement beneficiaries, based on the requests received.
