Romania plans to issue Samurai bonds and contract loans from multilateral banks such as EBRD or EIB to finance other green projects, finance minister Alexandru Nazare said at the CES ESG Conference 2025 in Bucharest on September 18. The country has already issued almost RON 10.8 billion (EUR 2 billion) in green bonds, allocated to a diversified area of green ​​projects such as non-polluting transport, wastewater management, and adaptation to climate change. "We plan to issue Samurai bonds in the next period, which will finance this area of ​​the green economy. Romania returned to the market of Japan last year, with a green Samurai bond that was partly successful. Minister Nazare said that Romania needs technical assistance in developing public-private partnership projects, which are necessary in the context of budgetary constraints.
