Instead of fully drawing on an existing loan agreement with an Icelandic bank, it has been decided to enter into an agreement with the Loan Fund for a 3 billion kr\u00f3na loan on much more favourable terms than a new bank loan. The Loan Fund will then presumably be involved in further refinancing in the coming months. Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur is the third largest municipality in the country, with total expenditure of around 21.9 billion kr\u00f3na.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n<em>\u201eThe fact that the Municipal Finance Corporation is prepared to lend us up to 6 billion kr\u00f3nur is proof that an analysis of our operations, and the subsequent reforms and changes, are paying off. This is a great recognition of the work that has been carried out over the past year. The savings from borrowing from the Loan Fund amount to tens of millions of kroner on a full-year basis, compared to the financing that was previously budgeted for.\u201c<\/em>\u00a0says Haraldur L.
