Buying a House in Hungary as a German Citizen: What You Should Bear in Mind

If you are planning to buy a house in Hungary as a German citizen, you are treated in the same way as Hungarian nationals as an EU citizen.

Supreme Court of Slovenia: In the event of insufficient risk disclosure, a CHF-based loan agreement is void

Before Hungarian courts, loan agreements with exchange-rate-linked interest are regularly declared partially invalid. In many judgments of the Hungarian Supreme Court, however, risk disclosure is addressed only in a formal sense. For years, we have argued — in many cases successfully — that this approach is inappropriate. We also regularly emphasise that, under Directive 93/13/EEC, […]
