The National Bank of Romania has published in February the Bank Lending Survey. The survey shows that in the final quarter of 2017, credit institutions preserved their credit standards on loans for house and land purchase to households and tightened marginally those for consumer credit. As for non-financial corporations, lending conditions applicable to them stayed flat against the previous quarter. For the first quarter of 2018, credit institutions envisage a marginal tightening of credit standards for both housing loans and consumer credit. Conversely, credit standards applicable to non-financial corporations are anticipated to hold steady in 2018 Q1 as well.
