In a series of tweets posted by BNM, the Bank said that individual borrowers who have lost their jobs can choose either a 3-month moratorium or a 50% reduction in monthly installments for 6 months.
It was to clarify on the newly announced loan repayment assistance announced by the government recently.
The B40 group who are BSH/BPR recipients will also be given the same moratorium and monthly instalment reductions options.
