Acting Director of the Republic of Srpska Investment Development Bank, Dra\u017een Vrhovac, said that this Bank was working hard internationally on promoting the Republic of Srpska\u2019s potential with significant support from the President of the Republic of Srpska Milorad Dodik and the Government of the Republic of Srpska.<\/p>\n
\u2018I am very satisfied with our positioning and completing the set plan in the past months. Two and a half years ago, when we started promoting the Republic of Srpska, we were at zero, and today our portfolio contains more than 260 companies with which we have active cooperation,\u2019 said Vrhovac.<\/p>\n
He noted that the Republic of Srpska\u2019s tax policy was very stimulating in this sense, as well as its position on the border with the European Union. \u2018Considering the EU\u2019s high taxes on both corporate income and dividends, we are very autonomous there with our tax policy, which provides for zero on dividends and 10 percent on corporate income tax, which is very attractive for investors bearing in mind Srpska\u2019s position, where they have access to the European market with a population of more than 640 million,\u2019 stated Vrhovac.<\/p>\n
He added that the RSIDB was preparing for the Invest Forum, to be held together with the Invest Srpska investment conference in November on Jahorina, where they expected an even higher company turnout, and recalled that 70 companies from 22 countries had attended the last year\u2019s conference in Banja Luka. \u2018Companies around the world have seen in us a credible partner they can trust, given that we are state-owned and that offers them security in their investments. We built mutual trust and succeeded in making investors feel welcome in the Republic of Srpska. We connect them with Srpska\u2019s institutions, the president and the prime minister, who provide them with support in the implementation of their investment,\u2019 said Vrhovac.<\/p>\n
He concluded that the RSIDB continued activities that would contribute to promoting the Republic of Srpska as a good and safe place to invest, and thanked the President of the Republic, the Prime Minister and the Government of Srpska for their support in this work.<\/p>\n
