摘要：In this paper, we analyzed the impact of the banking system reform on the bank performances at the level of 5 states in Central and Eastern Europe, focusing on determining the impact of the liberalization of the financial system and of the banking system in the Romanian banking system on the performances registered by banks. The results of the performed analysis showed that, during the analyzed period, both the financial reform index, and the banking reform index have a positive impact on the bank performance indexes (the cost of intermediation, operational performance and profitableness of assets) at the level of banks in Bulgaria, Romania, Poland, Hungary and Slovakia during 2001 to 2008. This means that an increase of the level of the indexes regarding the financial reform and the bank reform determines an increase of the performance of the banks in Central and Eastern Europe.
