Slovenia Weekly: An encouragement to the population

At it's session, the Government adopted the proposed Individual Investment Account Act, which introduces a special type of investment account aimed at promoting long-term saving among the population. The Act also aims to diversify the population's investment opportunities, strengthen the Slovenian capital market and expand the sources of financing for the economy. The key advantages of this account include simplified tax accounting and payment procedures, more favourable tax treatment, greater flexibility in investment management and a focus on investor protection.

In anticipation of Easter, families who celebrate it are busy with preparations, dyeing Easter eggs, baking potica, cooking ham and grating horseradish. Some will take advantage of the holidays for a short vacation. You can read about some Easter statistics and diverse Easter traditions in Slovenia in one of the articles published in Slovenia Weekly.
