Facts and documents clearly show that the Alta Bank has not been barred from operating in the European Union, contrary to the lies and manipulations that the LSDM and Venko Filipce have made public, the OBRM-PDUM say.

THE truth about the Alta Bank case is completely different from political construction and hysteria created by Phillips and LSDM. In fact, Alta Bank owned a 9.63% stake in Adiko Bank, while Diplomat Pay company bought a 9.99% stake. In August 2024, both companies’ voting rights were suspended after the competent Austrian regulator determined they acted together as linked parties and jointly won a qualifying turnout of 19.62%, without previously announcing the competent regulator, in line with legal obligations. That’s an anti-wage sanctions, that’s. A regulatory procedure related to early reporting of a purchased turnout, rather than a ban on Alta Bank operations in the European Union from the European Central Bank. In addition, in December 2024, Diplomat Pay sold its participation to an Austrian investor, after which in February 2025, the suspension of Alta’s vote rights at Adiko Bank was lifted, concluding that there were no more conditions for joint action between the two companies, clear from the OBRM-PDUM.

According to them, under these circumstances clearly indicate that Rusty has to do with a specific regulatory obligation during the purchase of an action, rather than a ban to operate in the EU.

There was no ban on operating in the European Union, and for this reason there was no basis and possibility that Alta Bank would be prevented from entering Macedonia, and Raiffeisen also had an agreement with the Macura group. They lie and manipulate Alta Bank in order to cause fear and panic in citizens, as was the case with migrants, drinking water in Skopje, pensions, IPARD programme, Thomas Weitzcom report, say by the OBRM-PUCCAM.
