Today it was a great pleasure to meet Montenegro's delegation including the #CBCG Governor Ms. Irena Radovic, Mr. Ambassador and their respective teams, presenting Montenegro's application to the EPC to become part of #SEPA geographic scope. As EPC we look forward this further step towards the integration and harmonisation of payments systems in the Balkanic area and in Europe.

Direktor DG FISMA pohvalio je aktivnosti CBCG. „Impresionirani smo aktivnostima koje ste sproveli, a posebno činjenicom da su one realizovane u izuzetno kratkom roku", kazao je Berigan.
