Financial crises are neither a new nor an unknown phenomenon. They often occurred over the recent centuries, one after another, creating the impression that no one wanted to learn to draw the appropriate conclusions as to the causes of their occurrence and consequences, often disastrous for countries, continents or the entire globe. Effects of the 2007 financial crisis, which originally broke in the USA, continue to have impact even today not only in the country where it broke first. Its extension in almost all developed countries seems to have revealed all the negative consequences of globalization, where the dependence of economies on one another would cause the domino effect affecting all the countries. Finances of the world were shocked and rapid fluctuations were reflected in the stock. Despite the fact that the global financial crisis has not hit directly Kosovo, its economy indirectly has felt the effect of the crisis. The purpose of this research is to assess the implications of the global financial crisis in the banking system of Kosovo, and also to identify measures that the Central Bank and the Government should undertake in order to protect the economy from external implications. This research also will compare the impact of global financial crisis in the banking system of Kosovo with the one of Romania, as a country which has a larger coverage than Kosovo in the international financial markets.
