KPMG’s Financial Services practice is the leader in the Romanian marketplace. Combining a strong local presence with access to a global network of banking professionals, we are well placed to help our clients successfully navigate through economic volatility and capitalise on opportunities as they arise. Reflecting their relative financial strength, Romanian financial institutions have generally withstood recent economic shocks well. Nevertheless this remains a time of exceptional challenges and opportunities for the sector. Risks from lending remain greater in a time of economic uncertainty and at the same time the sector is seeing unprecedented change as new disruptors and new technologies emerge on to the market, challenging traditional players and practices.  

In this environment, protecting and growing shareholder value requires financial institutions to be disciplined and customer focused. However successful initiatives to protect financial institutions and stimulate economic growth turn out to be, the financial services industry is likely to reinvent itself; probably faster than many people expect. As financial services organizations plan for the future, their focus is on issues such as cost reduction, capital and liquidity management, risk management and the changing regulatory landscape. In some cases the way forward will require a new business model and new ways of thinking.
