Alexandru Petrescu, head of ASF, emphasizes Romania's strategic opportunity in Ukraine's reconstruction, requiring significant investments and private capital. This process could enhance regional stability and economic partnerships. Petrescu highlights Romania's competitive advantages, including geographical location and infrastructure. However, success hinges on a coherent economic vision and strong international partnerships. Attracting private capital is essential, necessitating long-term financing tools and transparent regulations. The ASF can contribute by ensuring high governance standards and facilitating sustainable financing solutions. Petrescu calls for an urgent national strategy to connect Romanian firms with European funds and global partnerships, stressing that Romania's economic relevance depends on its responsiveness to international reconstruction efforts.
