tbi bank is introducing a grace period of up to two months for eligible property developers affected by the disruption to the land registry system following the recent cyberattack. The outage has prevented property transactions from being completed and the related funds from being collected, placing temporary pressure on developers’ cash flows despite their sound financial position. Under this measure, which will apply only while the land registry system remains unavailable, eligible tbi bank clients may defer repayments on existing loans for property development projects by up to two months. Interest accrued during this period will be added to the outstanding principal and repaid at the loan’s final maturity date. “The current disruption has temporarily halted transactions and delayed developers’ cash inflows for reasons entirely unrelated to their operations or financial strength. In challenging situations such as this, our role as a financing partner is to stand by our clients, as we have always done. We are acting swiftly with a practical solution that gives property developers the time they need to complete their sales once the land registry system returns to normal,” said Alexandru Cosma, VP Banking for Partners, tbi bank. Requests will be assessed on a case-by-case basis, taking into account each client’s financial position and repayment history. The repayment deferral will be granted through an addendum to the existing loan agreement. Eligible clients may contact their tbi bank representative for further information and to submit a request.
