Crkvenac said he ensured the money for the purchase saving from his
salaries in the past few months.
By purchasing the bonds, citizens are given a possibility of
investing their money at higher interest rates than the ones they
can have with fixed-term savings in banks. They also help the state
in the realisation of projects such as the building of roads and at
the same time they can earn too, Crkvenac explained.
