AI generatedThe court unanimously denied the request to review the calculation of commercial debt interest for EPAC, a grain trading company. The company argued against the application of specific interest rates, while the opposing party contended that both moratory and remuneratory interest are legally required for such debts. The court ruled that the established legal framework mandates the application of both interest types to debts arising from EPAC's commercial activities.
