On March 18, 2024, Montenegro launched its first-ever bond offering aimed at citizens, attracting significant interest on its inaugural day. According to the Ministry of Finance, the amount subscribed reached an impressive €7 million by the end of the day, with that figure reportedly surpassed in the following morning. The government has made €50 million worth of bonds available, each carrying an interest rate of 3.75% for a two-year term.

The minimum investment required to participate in this bond offering is €500. Investors can expect to earn €37.5 after two years for this amount. For those who invest €1,000, the return will be €75, while a €10,000 investment would yield €750 in interest. Notably, there is no upper limit on the amount that can be invested in these bonds.

The Ministry of Finance has previously stated that government bonds are recognized internationally as one of the safest investment options, primarily due to their backing by the state. This offering is open to all legal adults, including both Montenegrin citizens and foreign nationals who are residents of Montenegro.

To invest, interested individuals can visit any of the six partner banks: Crnogorska komercijalna banka, NLB, Erste, Hipotekarna, Prva banka Crne Gore, or Universal Capital Bank. The process involves completing a registration form and depositing the desired investment amount, as detailed by the Ministry of Finance.

The funds raised from this bond issuance are intended for infrastructure projects, capital budgets, and the establishment of fiscal reserves. For additional information, citizens can contact the Ministry via email at [email protected] or visit their official website and social media channels.

This bond offering represents a significant step for Montenegro in engaging its citizens in national financial initiatives. The government aims to foster a sense of ownership among the populace, while also securing necessary funding for vital projects that will benefit the country in the long term.
