The National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic amends two regulatory acts to define "blanket loans" as those not secured by real estate, movable property, guarantees, or other statutory collateral, excluding specific payroll and pension overdrafts, and to prohibit using personal rights such as salary or pension claims as collateral. These changes apply to loans issued after the resolution's effective date and require commercial banks and other licensed financial institutions to adjust their credit risk management and pledge procedures accordingly.
