Against the US dollar, the leu’s indicative edged lower to 3.304 units, from 3.3021 units Thursday.

The leu opened slightly up at 4.464/4.467 per euro, from 4.472/4.474 per euro at yesterday’s close, but further lost ground, trading above 4.48 to the euro.

In the money market, overnight rates were at 3.1%-3.6% a year.

The neighboring currencies also slid versus the euro after the Germany’s Constitutional Court warned the European Central Bank’s unlimited bond buying program might be illegal.

Although the ECB hasn’t yet used its program since it was announced in September 2012, the bank’s pledge to buy bonds to defend the euro restored investor confidence amid mounting concern following the Greek financial crisis.
