The Borissov cabinet approved the assumption of commitments which Bulgaria must fulfil after it joins the Banking Union and ERM II, the European exchange rate mechanism which precedes accession to the Eurozone.
According to the press service announcement the commitments are in the sphere of the non-banking financial sector, administration of state-owned enterprises, the bankruptcy framework and the fight against money laundering. Negotiations are forthcoming with the European partners, including the members of the Eurogroup and representatives of Denmark. This country is expected to enter the so-called Eurozone waiting room this month. The last step before that is the capitalization of First Investment Bank with the deal for the acquisition of shares by the Bulgarian Development Bank and private investors being completed by 3 July.
