Labus presented the Serbian government’s economic policy and the country’s progress in its transition. He particularly highlighted the success of the banking sector reform, which was carried out in Serbia faster than elsewhere in transition countries.
Labus called on representatives of Deutsche Bank to participate more in the Serbian market, with the understanding that accelerated economic growth has been positively influenced after the country received a better credit rating and a positive feasibility study from the EU.
Dinkic presented the Deutsche Bank delegation with the country’s current fiscal situation and the agreement reached with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Representatives of Deutsche Bank said that the Serbian government should continue with the good economic and monetary policy, as it will be a strong basis for economic development. They also expressed interest in financing infrastructure and real estate projects, as well as in the energy and telecommunications sector.
