The National Bank of Romania is preparing to modify the calculation method of the ROBOR interest rate following a request from the Competition Council. However, the new regulation will not be released until ongoing legal disputes between banks and the Competition Council are resolved. The proposed changes could significantly impact individuals with variable-rate loans, as ROBOR serves as a reference for these loans. The Competition Council has imposed fines on banks for collusion in setting the ROBOR rate, leading to multiple lawsuits from the banks seeking to suspend these penalties. The BNR is awaiting court decisions before proceeding with the new regulation, which may involve substantial changes to the current calculation method.
