Vienna/Bucharest – Raiffeisen Centrobank AG (RCB) was awarded by Bucharest Stock Exchange (BVB) on Monday evening in Bucharest at the annual Capital Markets Award ceremony as “Best Market Maker”. The event has been a great occasion for the Romanian business community to award persons and institutions who most contributed to the development of the local capital market in the previous year. For RCB the award means a continuation of its international award winning series. “We are glad to see that our work finds appreciation throughout our core markets and that the importance of market making is highlighted. This award certainly drives our motivation to further develop our products and enhance our service quality as well as to continue to set benchmarks within our industry”, explains RCB’s CEO Wilhelm Celeda.
The Romanian stock market experienced strong upwinds through the government’s commitment towards privatization, thus lifting the numbers of IPOs. Last year saw the biggest IPO in the history of the Romanian capital market, namely the one of Electrica S. A. which was among others also carried out by Raiffeisen. RCB is confident that a number of further capital market transactions will be seen at BVB in 2015.
