The Ministry of Finance (MF) planned to borrow from commercial banks in September 2023 for an amount of 6 billion lei, to which an additional 855 million lei can be added through additional non-competitive bidding sessions related to bond auctions.
The total amount of 6.855 billion lei is 1.61 billion lei higher than the 5.245 billion lei programmed in August and will be used to refinance public debt and finance the state budget deficit.
