Filip & Company provided legal assistance under Romanian law to the Romanian State, represented by the Ministry of Finance, in relation to the structuring, negotiation and contracting of several private placements in the form of loans granted by national and international financial institutions, with an aggregate total value of over EUR 2 billion. Norton Rose Fulbright provided specialized legal assistance as legal counsel on English law, significantly contributing to the success of the transactions.

“This initiative comes at an important moment, when investor confidence in Romania’s strategic direction is more valuable than ever. Even in a difficult global economic context, Romania is thus successfully attracting financing on favourable terms and strengthening its position on international markets. We are glad to have had the opportunity to contribute to this process and we thank the representatives of the Ministry of Finance for their trust and excellent cooperation”, said Alexandra Manciulea, partner and coordinator of Banking & Finance at Filip & Company.

The Filip & Company team that assisted the Ministry of Finance in finalizing these transactions was coordinated by Alexandra Manciulea (partner) and included Camelia Ianțuc (senior associate) and Sandra Danciu (associate).
