From new motorways crossing the Carpathian Mountains and upgraded rail lines to green bonds financing clean energy, the European Investment Bank (EIB) Group played a key role in supporting Romania’s economic transformation in 2025. With €1.6 billion in new financing in Romania last year, the EIB Group helped mobilise total investments of €5 billion, equivalent to 1.3% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP), reinforcing greener growth, stronger connectivity and long-term competitiveness.
