BNB reports growth in foreign investments after adoption of the euro

According to data from the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB), foreign direct investments in the country increased by 90 percent in the first two months of the year compared to the same period in 2025. This was announced by Julian Balchev, Secretary-General of Invest Bulgaria Agency, at the opening of the second regional business conference of "Lider.BG" in Trakia Economic Zone near Plovdiv. According to him, the interest in Bulgaria is also due to the smooth transition to the euro.

Last year, compared to 2024, foreign investments increased by 32%, mainly in the processing industry, Balchev said. He expressed hope that with Bulgaria's membership in the eurozone, the interest of foreign companies will rise.
