Moldovan commercial bank launches platform with assets for sale - first ever action in national banking system

Chisinau, 19 June /MOLDPRES/ - The commercial bank Victoriabank has launched, for the first time ever in Moldova, a site of sales of real estate (industrial real estate, grounds, houses/cottages, apartments, offices) and movables (goods, rights, vehicles, equipments).   

The platform www.Vanzari.victoriabank.md is structured on five principal categories: tender sales; direct sales; sales in insolvency proceeding; amicable sales and auto sales.    

A press release issued by the bank reads that the website was meant for all business people and investors, no matter the economic sector where they work, as well as for private persons willing to buy flats, automobiles or other assets coming from insolvencies. Presently, the platform has over 100 announcements about assets put for sale.   

For clients’ convenience, there is also an online form, through which the buying offer of each asset can be submitted or which contains questions on the asset. At the same time, the site also has diverse filters allowing the search of the assets depending on the district, city or category.  

Victoriabank is the third biggest bank of Moldova in terms of assets. It has 1,300 employees and almost 100 offices. Victoriabank started working in 1989 and is the first commercial banking institution of Moldova. A block of stocks of 72.19 per cent of the bank are owned by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the Banca Transilvania of Romania. In January 2018, for the first time in the last ten years, a bank from outside Moldova invested on this market, when Banca Transilvania bought a block of stocks of 39.2 per cent of Victoriabank.
