Testimonial

L’activité de l’AEDBF Roumanie constitue une véritable expression du professionnalisme, de l’engagement et de la continuité dans le domaine du droit bancaire et financier en Europe de l’Est.

Depuis sa fondation, la branche roumaine s’est distinguée par sa rigueur scientifique, son initiative académique et son ouverture constante au dialogue européen. Ses membres sont pleinement intégrés aux débats juridiques pertinents aux niveaux régional et communautaire, contribuant activement à la création d’un espace juridique commun, stable et tourné vers l’avenir.

En tant qu’ancien président de l’AEDBF Europe, j’adresse mes plus sincères félicitations à l’équipe roumaine et j’apporte tout mon soutien aux initiatives présentes et futures de cette organisation qui honore, par son excellence et son dévouement, les valeurs de la communauté juridique européenne.
