The Bulgarian banking system is among the most stable ones thanks to the high expertise of the people who work in it. They succeed despite turbulent times. They are successful because they follow the rules and laws. With these words, Vice President Iliana Iotova welcomed those present at the ceremony to mark the professional holiday of bankers. "The Bulgarian National Bank (BNB) is the only bank outside the eurozone that maintains such close cooperation with the European Central Bank," Iotova said in her welcome speech.
At the event, the BNB said it was against the 10% taxation of banks' excess profits. According to Governor Dimitar Radev, the measure included in the 2025 budget would "make credit more expensive." He warned that the banking sector is the only stable one in Bulgaria and such a measure would "take away from the country's financial stability."
