Governor of the Central Bank of Montenegro, Radoje Žugić and directors of all commercial banks operating in Montenegro, signed today the Agreement on implementation of the campaign ″Savings Week″, which, on the occasion of the World Savings Day, 31 October, has been implemented the thirteenth consecutive year.

Children born from 31 October to 6 November 2016, whose parents opened a savings book in one of Montenegrin commercial banks, the Central Bank paid 200 euros. Commercial bank which the parents have chosen, besides the saving book, paid another 200 euros. The amount of 400 euros will be deposited for one year. After the expiry of this period, parents can raise money or again deposit the money.
