(C/2024/4299)
Language of the case: Romanian
Appellant: UG
Respondent: SC Raiffeisen Bank SA
1)Article 1(2) of Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts, must be interpreted as not precluding the assessment of whether terms contained in a consumer credit agreement concluded between a consumer and a seller or supplier are unfair in circumstances where that seller or supplier has amended those terms in order to ensure that that agreement complies with mandatory national legislation relating to the methods of determining the interest rate, if that legislation merely establishes a general framework for fixing the interest rate for that agreement, while leaving a margin of discretion to that seller or supplier as regards both the choice of reference index for that rate and the size of the fixed margin that can be added to the latter.
2.Article 3 of Directive 93/13, must be interpreted as precluding national case-law under which amendments made by a seller or supplier to the terms of a consumer credit agreement in order to ensure that that agreement complies with national legislation that leaves a margin of discretion to the seller or supplier cannot be subject to an examination of whether they are unfair, even if those terms have not been negotiated with the consumer.
