Loans for holiday packages

The Banco de Reservas launched its program “Vacaciones Felices” (Happy Holidays) whereby the bank will finance holidays for Dominican residents. The program was developed by the National Hotel & Restaurant Association to increase domestic travel. It stipulates a three month grace period, and six month quotas at 2% interest on the pending balance. The program will start this summer but will be in effect for a year. (28 June 2001)
