New river port in Bratislava

State-owned Verejné prístavy is set to take out a 5-year loan of €165m at 4.9% interest from ČSOB shortly, which it would use to purchase infrastructure in Bratislava's river port from privately owned SPaP, said VP CEO Matej Danóci. Part of the infrastructure would be demolished, and part of the land in the port would be sold in five years for €160–280m. Private developers will build residential projects there. VP would use part of the money to repay the loan and the rest for a new river port on the remaining land. Similarly, VP is also to buy infrastructure in Komárno from SPaP, but for much lower amounts.

                    Developer Iuris also wants to build a new river port nearby for €680m.
