The Bulgarian National Bank (BNB) announced that it is lowering the base interest rate to 3.63% as of July 1. In May and June, the base interest rate was 3.78%. Bulgaria is in a currency board and the Bulgarian lev is pegged to the euro. Therefore, the base interest rate does not have a direct impact on lending and deposit rates, which are mainly determined by the interest rates set by the European Central Bank. The BNB's interest rate concerns delayed debt repayment, primarily to the state or in inter-company relations under the Obligations and Contracts Act.
July 1 is the last day for declaring and paying corporate tax, taxes related to expenses, and taxes on the income of budget enterprises. Over 283,000 companies have already declared their revenues to the National Revenue Agency.
