Alexandru Berea is one of the key individuals in the senior management team of Banca Comerciala Romana (BCR) – a member of Erste Bank Group – as well as a member of the supervisory board of BCR’s Housing Bank. He is focused on meeting the business goals of the Bank while maintaining full compliance vigilance.
I have personally worked with him for more than 10 years, on various mandates spanning M&A, regulatory and compliance, litigation, GDPR, capital markets, employment, competition and more. He always sets out expectations from the beginning and provides guidance whenever required. I remember our strategic planning meetings – processes which were often filled with long hours – [where] he impressed me with his legal mind, excellent work ethic and negotiation skills, not to mention his sense of humour. I certainly keep him in the highest regard and would strongly recommend him for the GC Powerlist.
