Senators have approved a bill on compensation of bank deposits. The document introduces a guaranteed reimbursement of funds to citizens in case of bankruptcy or liquidation of the banking institution where accounts were opened. It also reduces the reimbursement period from 30 days to one week. Citizens can choose the form of refunding: cash or non-cash payment.
Tatyana Runets, Chairperson of the Standing Committee of the Council of the Republic of the National Assembly of Belarus:
I would like to appeal to people who hold deposits in banks, so that they did not worry and did not listen to destructive channels, which are now discussing this bill and urging citizens to take money from the bank. I want to assure the citizens of our country that this legislation is aimed at protecting our citizens from losing money. There will be no loss of money. All deposits will be returned.
Individual entrepreneurs can also count on the reimbursement of deposits. However, in this case, there are limits on the amount - in the amount of 100 thousand rubles.
