The post-pandemic period is expected to be challenging for the banking sector, as it will need to support the recovery of the local economy. The sector will need to focus on providing credit to businesses and households, as well as on developing new products and services to meet the needs of customers.This paper discusses the current trends in the development of the banking sector in Georgia in 2019-2022, in relation to the issues of economic growth and the problems and challenges that the pandemic and post-pandemic periods have shown us.
