Banks have extended the deadline to apply for the deferral until September 29. <\/p>\n<p>With this voluntary moratorium, the banking sector has expanded both the number of families that can benefit from payment deferrals and the duration of these deferrals compared to the legal moratorium approved by the Government.<\/p>\n<p>The sector-wide moratorium is complementary to the statutory moratorium, as established by both the Sectoral Agreement and Royal Decree-Law 19\/2020.
