An analysis of the current situation in the Romanian mutual and pension funds markets and an assessment of whether or not it is appropriate for Eurobank and Banc Post to launch these products in the market at the time being was undertaken. Taking into consideration the trends at the macro and micro economic level in Romania and the results from a market survey with consumers and key institutional players recommendations for entering the mutual fund market are proposed. As far as pension funds are concerned the bank should await a clearer definition of the corresponding legal framework before considering entering.
