In September, the IMF has authorized a EUR1.98 billion precautionary credit line for Romania, the third financial package the eastern European country has received in the last four years.

Another EUR1 billion secured under a World Bank loan policy in 2012 was to remain available until December 2015.

The loan package is supplemented by a EUR1 billion loan from the World Bank, on which Romania has just decided to draw EUR700 million.
