Restructured Loans
Pending the establishment of guidelines regarding the procedures for loan restructuring, any banking establishment, by mutual agreement with its client, is authorized to redefine the terms of any performing loan before January 12, 2010. Loans thus restructured will be subject to a specific provision of 2%.
It is understood that non-performing loans or those that have been restructured before January 12, 2010, are not covered by this circular letter.
This decision is effective as of this date and extends until further notice.
