en.Wedoany.com Reported - Telekom Srbija has secured a $50 million loan from the Export-Import Bank of the United States (EXIM). The loan will be used to support the expansion of its 5G network across Serbia. The operator launched its commercial 5G network services in December 2025 and plans to achieve 5G network coverage in all cities across Serbia by the end of 2026. Furthermore, the company aims to achieve nationwide 5G network coverage across Serbia by 2027.

Telekom Srbija stated that the loan will be used to procure equipment and software from U.S. technology companies, highlighting the long-established partnership between the operator and its American financial and technology partners. Group CEO Vladimir Lucic described the agreement as a significant milestone for both Telekom Srbija and the wider Western Balkans region, further adding that the loan will help accelerate the deployment of next-generation digital infrastructure. The operator recently reported strong full-year 2025 results: revenue grew by 28% to €2.3 billion, and adjusted EBITDA increased by 51% to €1.3 billion. Additionally, Telekom Srbija returned to the international capital markets by issuing new bonds. This followed its inaugural issuance of $900 million in Eurobonds, which marked the first corporate Eurobond issued in the Western Balkans region, subsequently winning the European Telecom Financing Deal of the Year award at the 2026 TMT Finance Awards EMEA ceremony.
