FIDELIS bonds offer yields of 7.60% in RON – an opportunity for retirees looking to make the most of their savings

The Ministry of Finance has announced the relaunch of the FIDELIS government securities programme for the period 15–22 June 2026, offering attractive investment opportunities for pensioners and seniors who wish to grow their savings in a secure environment.

The new edition proposes competitive interest rates of up to 7.60% for RON-denominated securities and up to 6.80% for euro-denominated ones, representing an attractive alternative to bank deposits for older people seeking stable savings instruments.

For elderly individuals who have been blood donors, the programme also includes two special tranches, marking the International Blood Donor Day on 14 June. This initiative recognises the valuable contribution seniors have made to the healthcare system through the act of donation.

FIDELIS government securities represent a safe investment option, being guaranteed by the Romanian state — an aspect of particular importance for pensioners who cannot afford to take significant risks with savings accumulated over a lifetime of work.

The programme is aimed primarily at individuals, including seniors who wish to protect their purchasing power and generate additional income through conservative investments. The interest rates on offer can provide meaningful financial support for pensioners living on fixed incomes.
