Savings Certificates :
In the past, Savings Certificates were issued in values of multiples of €1 and were exclusively sold to individuals. The issuance of Savings Certificates has been suspended since the end of 2007.
Interest from investments in Savings Certificates is compounded annually and is paid only on the encashment of the investment. Encashment prior to maturity may be effected at prices that reflect the overall length of the investment period. Matured Savings Certificates which have not been encashed continue to earn interest according to the relevant Announcements issued by the Minister of Finance.
