In the last few years financial experts demonstrated the very close relationship between the evolution of the capital market and the economic growth level in different countries.

In the present context of Romania’s EU accession, we expect a continuous trend of economic growth as a consequence of EU funds absorption for rehabilitating the economic and business infrastructure.

The aim of our study is to examine the main events on the Romanian capital market and to present an accurate picture of its evolution before and after the EU accession, in order to prove the strong relationship between economic growth and capital market evolution.
