Szakács said the rate of retail credit under the moratorium is set to drop from 30% to 23%.

Hungary's government rolled out a blanket repayment moratorium in the spring of 2020 to ease fallout from the coronavirus crisis.

From November 1, participation in the moratorium will be limited to retail borrowers whose incomes have fallen, the jobless, pensioners, and parents raising children, while corporate borrowers must show a 25% fall in revenue to join.
