In keeping with it’s mission and reputation it will continue to support the process f introducing clear and unified rules (standards) for collecting information on bank transaction from commercial banks in order to limit the effect of the so called information asymmetry in various areas.

The starting wave of take over and mergers among banks also pose threat to information technology in the financial sector during the accession period.

The challenge to information technology in the transaction period in the uneven development of region. This creates the danger of part of the population to be left outside the scope off adequate financial services due to the weak incentives, the region of slow growth and lower level of standard are characterized by lower profitability of financial service.
