Today, April 17, the day which is published in the Official Gazette "Order PRE/773/2012 of 16 April, which publishes the Agreement of the Government Commission for Economic Affairs on March 1 of 2012, for implementation of the funding mechanism for payment to providers of local bodies, "the group of IU must return to give his opinion to say that the only mechanism favoring financial institutions, banks, crossing of scandalous that the money provided by the European Central Bank at low interest (around 1%), the private banking system, should be returned to an interest rate lower than 6% unlikely in view of spreads the risk premium, which have been recently placing consistently above the 350 basis points.
The order reads that the interest rate for the borrower, ie the municipality will be "equivalent to the cost of financing the Treasury plus a maximum of 115 basis points that will add a net interest income of up to 30 points. "
