The Franak Association today sent an open letter to the Prime Minister of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, as “the person who holds all the instruments for solving the problem of the Swiss franc” in that country.
The Association emphasizes that the problem of loans with a currency clause in švicarskim francima is not just the problem of one citizen, a few hundred people, nor of Croatia or Serbia, but rather a product that has been created and marketed in a number of countries, thus representing a common problem for all of Eastern Europe, a problem that many countries have already resolved through the conversion of these loans.
They state that they actively monitor all events in the neighborhood and have noticed that in other countries in the region, including Serbia, there is no awareness and responsibility from the central bank and its leading figures. They continue by questioning the expertise of the people leading the central bank, who ignore or are unaware of basic economic concepts in terms of risk management, which includes both currency and interest rate risk.
