The President of the Association of Banks in Bulgaria, Peter Andronov, said that the banking system in the country was stable and in recent years has accumulated buffers and reserves, which allow it to face difficulties in this period.

In the past ten days alone, payments on 25,000 loans have been deferred. Providing state-guaranteed non-interest-bearing loans have also started.

Such programs are being prepared by the European Investment Bank and the European Investment Fund, Peter Andronov added.
