In December 2007, the EBRD approved subscription of up to 10% of capital in JSC Mobiasbanca for an amount up to MDL 55.3 million (then €3.3 million). At the time of the proposed transaction, JSC Mobiasbanca was the fifth largest private bank in Moldova, and was a leader in the retail market segment.
