🚀We are very proud to announce a sweeping victory on behalf of one of the main infrastructure contractors in Romania in a complex multi-million EUR dispute against CNAIR stemming from a construction public procurement contract.

Our team successfully represented the client in an intricate international arbitration case concerning the adjustment mechanism related to major road infrastructure works, bringing together complex commercial, technical and legal issues in the context of our client’s  fundamental right to fair compensation.

Following an intense 2 years process, the Arbitral Tribunal issued its final award ruling in favor of our client on all counts and all claims. The Tribunal decisively validated our client's position and awarded not only the outstanding principal amount but also material delay penalties and further damages to cover monetary devaluation. Full recovery of arbitration costs and legal fees was also secured.

This landmark win reinforces the critical importance of adhering to FIDIC adjustment mechanisms and ensures that contractors are fairly compensated in unpredictable economic climates.

👏A huge congratulations to our dedicated Infrastructure and Arbitration teams led by Miruna Suciu and Cleopatra Leahu as well as to Radu Petroi for their strategic vision and relentless effort!

Romania’s Strategic Shift: OECD Accession and the Modernization of Tax Law

Romania’s Strategic Shift: OECD Accession and the Modernization of Tax Law    The journey toward the "Club of Developed Nations" is far more than a diplomatic exercise; it is the most significant structural transformation Romania has undertaken since joining NATO and the European Union. As of early 2026, this strategic ambition has reached a critical tipping point. Having successfully secured 19 out of 25 formal opinions required for OECD accession, the Romanian government has moved beyond symbolic gestures to implement a "360-degree review" of national legislation.    The centerpiece of this transition is the recently approved Government Ordinance (OG 1/2026), which introduces sweeping modifications to the Tax Procedure Code (Law 207/2015). This update is not merely an administrative shuffle. It represents a profound alignment with global transparency standards and the digital realities of today’s business environment. By synchronizing domestic policy with internat...

Anticipating the "Single Market Leap" in the EU , where the proposed "EU Inc." regime and the new Technology Transfer Framework aim to dissolve national administrative barriers and modernize the dissemination of high-tech assets to secure the bloc's global edge. 2. Navigating Romania’s "Regulatory Refinement" phase , where updated ANRE procedures for foreign market participants and new copyright collection...
