An Overview of the Romanian Banking System
Keywords:
banking system, banks, credit, savingAbstract
The banking industry in any country ensures, due to the specific nature of its activity, a key role in the functioning of economic mechanisms, with an impact on macroeconomic developments, on the dynamics of the business environment and on the improvement of the Romanian economy. The 32 credit institutions that make up the banking sector in Romania had net assets of 803.4 billion lei in 2023 and have recorded an acceleration in profitability compared to recent years, achieving a net profit of 13.7 billion lei. In addition to the banks' lending role, they also attract deposits, thus protecting the savings of the population and companies. Banks support the economy by granting loans, but it is important that they go to the sectors with the highest development potential and which create well-paid jobs.
