Romanian Financial and Insurance Markets Regulation 

Romanian financial and insurance markets are supervised by two National Competent Authorities. 

Autoritatea de Supraveghere Financiară (ASF)

The Financial Supervisory Authority is the competent authority for all tasks related to financial markets. It’s an autonomous, specialized, with legal status, independent, self-financed administrative authority, exercising its duties by taking over and reorganizing all duties and powers of the National Securities Commission (CNVM), the Insurance Supervisory Commission (CSA) and the Private Pension System Supervisory Commission (CSSPP).
