Serbia arrests owner of bank linked to Vučić
Serbian authorities arrested Alta Bank owner Davor Macura, accusing him of emptying the bank’s vault after the election defeat of President Aleksandar Vučić, the Financial Times reported. Alta Bank had been linked to the former president’s political network. The RSS report did not include a response from Macura or the bank.
Why it matters
The case tests financial oversight during Serbia’s political transition and could expose risks inside a politically connected lender.
