The limit for such loans for couples is now 1.2 billion rials ($32,000) in the capital Tehran, which stood at 1 billion rials ($26,600) prior to the ruling. MCC has also allowed Cooperatives Development Bank to offer housing loans, which used to be a prerogative of Bank Maskan and other non-specialized commercial banks. The final implementation of the measure depends on banks’ resources. More details will be announced by the Central Bank of Iran in due time, Financial Tribune reported.
