Weerts Group, the developer of the Unirii View Tower office building in Bucharest, has secured a credit facility worth €29.5 million from BCR. The funding will be used to refinance a previous loan for the office project's development.

Law firm Țuca Zbârcea & Asociații worked with the developer on the financing deal. 

“We are delighted that this highly significant transaction was successfully completed within the timeframe agreed by the parties, further demonstrating that sustainable real estate projects can earn the trust of major financial institutions such as BCR,” said Gabriela Anton, Partner at Țuca Zbârcea & Asociații and head of the firm's banking and finance projects.
