One more week to pull 10% of Trust recovery

But most Kosovars haven't quit at all. Only on the first day, December 11, 2020, had more than half the contributors applied, blocking the system in the beginning.

Over 90 per cent of the applications were conducted in the first month. Now, without taking the savings money, only 35 percent of it has left.

From the institution guarding them, 197m euros have so far been drawn.

Those who have the most money in RRUST have used this measure more heavily.

“Bilanci up to 10 euros have attracted only 11 per cent; 500 euros, over 90 per cent; over a thousand euros, more than 97 per cent”, explains Jeton Demi, spokesman atTRUST.

The withdrawal of 10 per cent is part of the Law on Economic Repurchasing, voted in the Assembly at the time of the Hoti Government, which taught me to ease economic damage from the COVID-19 pandemic.

But according to economic lawmakers at Pristina University, Sead Wolfani, this has had short-term effect.

The largest part of them have been used for consumption, perhaps without any long-term real effect. And at the same time, most contributed to the time when it was distributed, which was the end-of-year”, he says.

Wolfan considers that this law has also created social inequality and has not been inclusive.

“has been distributed and an unfavourable situation for a part of the workers who have been working on informal contracts over years, these have not enjoyed this right”, Ukkan adds.

Those who have issued or released less than a thousand euros out of 10 per cent will be repaid by the state.
