Summary/Abstract: The huge negative effects of the global financial and economic crisis that increases significant credit risk prompted international community and financial organizations to launch and to promote responsible lending practices, to develop a set of principles and practices in order to minimize credit risk through responsible lending. Responsible lending benefits consumers and minimises the risk of abusive practices and over-indebtedness and this implies lower credit risk for the creditor. In the Republic of Moldova this subject is very actual due to a high level of non-performing loans. According to data presented by the National Bank of Moldova, in recent years the volume and the ratio of non-performing loans in total credit portfolio is continually increasing.The purpose of the research is to establish responsible crediting principles, identify factors, methods and techniques that will minimize credit risk for both debtors and creditors.
