Colliers: Green buildings gain better financing terms as sustainable lending becomes standard in Romania

Sustainability is becoming a key factor in real estate financing in Romania, with banks increasingly offering better lending terms for green buildings, according to a new study by real estate consultancy Colliers. The report found that energy performance and compliance with green finance criteria are now directly influencing access to financing and borrowing costs.

The study, the first of its kind on the Romanian market, is based on responses from four commercial banks, representing more than half of the country's banking assets, and two multilateral development banks active in the real estate sector.
