On 3 December 2025, the Official Gazette published Law no. 202/2025 that amends and supplements Law no. 213/2015 on the Insureds Guarantee Fund (FGA) and Law no. 85/2014 on insolvency prevention and insolvency proceedings.
These amendments significantly recalibrate the institutional design, financing toolkit, and cross-border coordination of Romania’s insurance guarantee scheme, with particular emphasis on the handling of motor third party liability (MTPL) insurance claims and alignment with the EU framework introduced by Directive 2021/2118.

The EU directive harmonising certain aspects of insolvency law, a Propo
In light of the European Commission’s recent proposal that an EU Directive be issued regulating insolvency and pre-pack proceedings, Romania’s insolvency and bankruptcy legal framework does not currently provide rules on pre-packs or on the preparation of a sale of a debtor's assets before insolvency proceedings are formally opened.
On 31 August 2023, the Romanian government passed emergency Government Ordinance (GEO 2023), which extends by 90 days the validity of the insurance policies issued by Euroins Romania Asigurare-Reasigurare S.A., which is now in bankruptcy. Prior to the issuance of GEO 2023, motor third liability insurance policies (MTPL) issued by Euroins Romania were due to expire on 8 September 2023 while the guarantee policies issued by this insurer were due to expire within 150 days after the opening of its bankruptcy procedure (i.e. 7 November 2023).
