Romanian private sector credit and deposits grow by over 8% YoY in H1 2026
Ziarul FinanciarLO·RO·about 3 hours ago
Private sector credit in Romania expanded by 8.4% year-on-year in June, driven by an 8.9% increase in household lei-denominated loans and a 23.4% surge in corporate foreign currency financing. The data indicates robust domestic credit demand despite high interest rate environments, though the reliance on foreign currency debt for firms warrants monitoring for potential exchange rate sensitivity.
