* Base interest rate (BIR) is applicable to business clients, and it is a variable interest rate index that the Bank uses as a base interest rate when calculating the variable interest rate on the loan applicable to the contract. The BIR is approved by Fibank's Board of Directors and calculated according to a methodology announced by Fibank for each individual type of currency, based on the ratio between the planned costs of the Bank's liabilities and the market interest rates for the same currency, applicable to loans in national and foreign currencies. BIRa, BIRb and BIRc represent the base interest rate adjusted by a coefficient for the market environment for business clients with an internal bank credit rating, respectively in the interval 1-2 (for BIRa), 3-4 (for BIRb) and 5-6 (for BIRc) . The Bank makes public the base interest rates - BIRa, BIRb and BIRc that it applies, by announcing and publishing them on the Bank's website at www.fibank.bg;
