Previously, a state-backed tranche of 150 million euros was budgeted for IKA, so that the latter could pay social security benefits in September.
According to ministry figures released this week, IKA’s revenues from social security contributions – by wage-earners and employers – in 2016 increased by 241.2 million euros, or 4 percent more than the corresponding period in 2015.
