Romania’s private equity outlook featured in Chambers 2025 guide

Wolf Theiss is pleased to have contributed the Romania chapter to the Chambers and Partners Private Equity 2025 Global Practice Guide, offering expert insight into the country’s evolving private equity (PE) landscape. The chapter, authored by Ileana Glodeanu, Andreea Carare, George Ghitu and Delia Dumitrescu from the firm’s Bucharest office, provides a comprehensive overview of recent market developments, legal frameworks and strategic trends shaping PE activity in the country.

Romania’s PE market has experienced significant growth in both deal volume and value over the past two years, driven by the country’s stable economy, EU membership and predictable legal environment, which continue to bolster investor confidence. The chapter highlights a shift from smaller, local transactions to larger, strategic investments led by international funds and platform-based strategies. Key sectors attracting investment include healthcare, technology, real estate and renewable energy, supported by Romania’s push towards digital transformation and green energy development.

Additionally, the guide explores evolving deal structures, exit strategies and the macroeconomic context influencing investor appetite.

Looking ahead, Romania’s EU-aligned regulatory environment, expanding infrastructure and skilled workforce position the country as an increasingly attractive destination for both regional and global investors.
