At yesterday's 1st regular session of the Berkovići Municipal Assembly, a proposal by the Mayor of Berkovići, Bojan Samardžić, led to the unanimous adoption of a conclusion to initiate the opening of an Agency for Intermediary, IT, and Financial Services (APIF) office in the municipality.
The purpose of this initiative is to improve access to administrative and financial services for farmers and businesses in Berkovići. The municipality will formally submit a request to APIF and other relevant institutions to implement this important initiative.
“I hope higher levels of government will show willingness and readiness to support and realize this initiative, as it is vital for our entire community.
Agriculture is a strategic sector and the livelihood for a significant number of our residents. Opening an APIF office in Berkovići would provide our farmers with easier access to services such as registration, farm updates, and subsidy applications. Additionally, it would simplify administrative procedures for businesses, which is an important step toward improving conditions for work and the development of the local economy,” stated Mayor Samardžić.
