The chief executive of BKT Albania’s subsidiary, which has been fully operational locally for almost two years, said it couldn’t ignore climate change and environmental concerns. “In this regard, BKT intends to contribute its part to a better future for the country and the globe. We believe that this loan will help to increase public awareness and result in energy efficiency and, ultimately, a greener Kosovo*,” Suat Bakkal was quoted.

The lender claims an 11.8% market share and the fifth place, as of December, against 6.9% from 2013, when it still had the status of a branch. The bank has grown by 55% in asset size since June 2018.
GGF noted it just established its fifth partnership in the country with the senior loan and added that BKT is “likeminded” and dedicated to making a difference with energy and resource efficiency. Chairman Olaf Zymelka wrote: “We are optimistic to see the fruits of this investment translate to more businesses and homes in Kosovo* becoming greener, thereby protecting the environment for the future.”
