It will be a difficult year for banks and their customers, predicts banker Levon Hampartzoumian. In his opinion, the recommendation of the European Central Bank to loosen loan lending rules does not mean easier lending, but flexibility and rigorous risk assessment. The banker also predicts an increase in online sales at the expense of cash payments.
