The value of loans granted by non-bank financial institutions (NBFIs) in Romania reached a record level of over 37.5 billion lei, mid-2021, after an advance of 6.7% in the first 6 months, compared to the same period in 2020, shows the latest KeysFin analysis.

"In the pandemic year, the loans granted by the NBFIs entered in the General Register increased by 2.3% to 35.2 billion lei, but in December 2020 they were by 4% below the historical level of 36.8 billion lei reached in December 2008," informs a press release sent to AGERPRES on Thursday.

In terms of the share of the total loans, the NBFIs included in the category Multiple lending activities granted over 98% of the total, while institutions included in the Financial leasing category lent only 1.8% of the total, according to the National Bank of Romania (BNR) from the end of June 2021, reads the release.
