In the process of strengthening the monetary policy, commercial banks have released a wave of promotional offers, with cuts on credit costs. Two top banks have announced increases in interest rates for deposits. Banca Romaneasca is conducting a campaign until the end of the year, with zero interest rate in the first six months for home equity loans, with a value of over 50,000 euros. The Greek-based bank will join the series of offers started by BCR and Alpha Bank, which are promoting their real estate financing this autumn. Another two banks – Garanti Bank and Bancpost – have recently announced promotions for consumer credits. BCR officials in turn announced at the beginning of the week that the bank would launch a promotion for consumer credits. The majority of banks have chosen to promote credits in euros.
