“Bank Maskan as a specialized development bank has a heavy load on its shoulders and the bank has managed to take effective measures to provide housing finances for low- and middle-income groups of the society in the past few years,” Shahram Kouseh Gharavi was also quoted as saying by Bank Maskan’s news website. However, the parliamentarian noted that because of the current economic challenges, Bank Maskan cannot solely provide all the finances needed by the housing sector and other organs need to help in this regard, Financial Tribune reported.
