We aim to grant additional competences to temporary administrators assigned to insolvent banks “, Aslanli told.

According to him, legal draft envisages transfer of healthy assets of insolvent bank along with part of its obligations to another bank through auction and conduction of recovery measures using the income from this deal: “There is also “bridge bank” concept in the draft. It envisages transfer of insolvent bank’s obligations to “bridge bank” and later sale of this bank. This is in line with advanced international practice”.
