DEBTORS, HERE'S WHEN LOAN INSTALLMENTS WILL RISE! Euribor Has Jumped
All debtors in Serbia have met this news with fear.
TL;DR
- The Euribor has experienced a significant daily increase, with the 12-month rate showing the largest growth in 18 years.
- Experts warn this trend may signal potential increases in European Central Bank interest rates, impacting euro-denominated loans in Serbia.
- Borrowers with variable-rate loans tied to Euribor can expect higher monthly payments following the next review period.
- A banker explains that the current surge is due to a combination of geopolitical risks (Middle East conflicts) and market expectations, not solely central bank decisions.
- Despite the recent jump, the Euribor remains considerably lower than its levels in 2023-2024, when it was close to 4%.
