November 26th, 2016 – Simplification, transparency, and legal certainty: these are, according to the Italian Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina, “the reforms needed to bring Bosnia closer to Europe and also restart the economy of the country”. An economy which meanwhile will have a good injection of vitamins thanks “to the new plant that Metalleghe opens today in Mrkonjic Grad, in partnership with UniCredit and SACE – continued Ambassador Corrias – And other Italian companies are ready to follow in Metalleghe’s footsteps. This is a €42 million investment that will create over 100 new jobs and 16,000 tons of product per year.” The ambassador spoke at the inauguration of the Mrkonijc Grad RS Silicon plant which will produce metallic silicon, owned by the Italian company Metalleghe.
