The President of Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, said that the budget for the next year will be adopted in December, and that there will be no restrictions on benefits when it comes to personal income, salaries and pensions.
Dodik noted that pensions will have to be adjusted to the average salary, which, as he said, is undoubtedly growing in the RS.
“We will try to maintain this level of the economy, to guarantee our budget liquidity through inflows that will enable us to service all our obligations and to maintain the rating that the Republika Srpska has strengthened,” said Dodik.
He stated that RS increased its credit rating from B to B plus, which indicates growth.
Dodik pointed out that the data speaks of the stability of the economy, and added that he expects this to be reflected in political stability as well.
He said that the RS is politically and institutionally stable and that there are no challenges that could threaten this, emphasizing that the existing gross domestic product is 14.5 to 15 billion BAM, Srna reports.
