The depositors of Sberbank born before 1970 inclusive, who filed applications to be paid their deposits back at the first stage, can take the money from the branches of Banca de Economii (Savings Bank), Info-Prim Neo has learned from the Ministry of Finance. The central commission for paying back deposits continues to accept applications from the depositors born before 1970. Applications can be lodged with any branch of Banca de Economii until September 1, 2010. Additional information can be obtained on 224-131, 225-535, and 241-078. At the first stage, depositors get 1,000 lei each at a ratio of 1 leu : 1 Soviet ruble. The remaining deposited sum will be indexed at a ratio of 1 : 2.5, but only after all the depositors that had accounts in Sberbank before 1992 have received the first thousand rubles. After the Moldovan leu was introduced on November 29, 1993 and the prices were liberalized, the population’s savings decreased in value over 1,000 times.
