The necessity of examining the situation on the currency market appeared after the national currency started to significantly depreciate against the main foreign currencies. According to experts, the taking of about one billion euros by illegal transactions between Banca de Economii, Banca Sociala and Unibank out of the country contributed to the created situation. The National Anticorruption Center and the Anticorruption Prosecutor’s Office started a number of criminal cases over the provision of bad loans by these banks.
