According to the financial analysis platform RisCo.ro, the Capital continues to hold the top spot in terms of insolvencies. After registering 217 new insolvency cases in July 2025, the Capital maintained its leading position in August 2025, with 211 new insolvency files opened. Although the figure shows a slight decrease, specialists warn that the upcoming months will be decisive for many Romanian companies and businesses. Moreover, user behavior on the RisCo.ro platform confirms the prevailing sense of uncertainty, reflected in a high number of company searches and checks. In August 2025 alone, 119,200 company checks were conducted on the RisCo.ro platform. “Economic instability forces entrepreneurs to be cautious when choosing business partners, careful in signing contracts, and prudent with company spending. Considering the over 119,000 company checks in August 2025, we noticed that RisCo.ro users are increasingly concerned about financial stability and the risks associated with their partners. From inquiries about company status and financial history to generating risk reports—shareholding, payment incidents, court cases, and financial ratings—users show greater interest in assessing solvency and potential difficulties of the companies they intend to collaborate with,” said Daniela Colnicianu, Sales Director Bucharest at RisCo. Given the significant recent transformations, the use of financial analysis tools is strongly recommended to support the Romanian business environment in making well-informed decisions. RisCo.ro specialists urge entrepreneurs to remain cautious, emphasizing that financial analysis should be a priority, especially now, in the context of a volatile economy. At the national level, 907 insolvency cases were opened in August 2025, representing a slight 6% decrease compared to the previous month. Bucharest, Cluj, Bihor, Timi?, and Ilfov recorded the highest number of insolvency cases in August 2025.
