Loan servicing companies have announced their complete adherence to a Supreme Court ruling concerning interest calculations for loans covered by Greece's Law 4321/2014. This decision addresses how interest should be calculated for loans that have been restructured under this law.

Despite confirming compliance, the companies pointed out that interpretive questions persist. Specifically, they cited ambiguities regarding the period over which interest accrues on monthly loan installments. These issues necessitate further clarification from the relevant authorities.

As a result of these ongoing interpretive challenges, the companies stated that interest payments on these loans will be suspended. This freeze will remain in effect until the ambiguities are resolved, providing a temporary pause for borrowers while the legal framework is clarified.
