Santo Domingo.– Banco de Reservas announced the availability of a RD$7 billion quota to finance the country’s productive sectors, as part of its strategy to support investment, business growth, production, and job creation.

The announcement was made by the executive president of Banreservas, Dr. Leonardo Aguilera, during the Santo Domingo Business Breakfast, held at the Aloft hotel with the participation of business owners, clients, and representatives from various productive sectors.

Aguilera stated that Banreservas maintains a strategy of supporting the business sector, based on close banking that understands the needs of its clients and seeks to back their investment and expansion projects.

In that sense, he reported that during this year the financial entity has disbursed more than RD$44 billion to the business segment, destined mainly to construction, commerce, the agricultural sector, and manufacturing.

The executive president also highlighted that this growth has occurred while maintaining the quality of the credit portfolio, which recorded a delinquency rate of just 0.18% as of August 19.

Aguilera explained that the RD$7 billion available for the productive sectors aim to become new investments, stronger companies, higher levels of production, and new jobs.
