The person holding the status of an investor in Romania can be either an individual or a legal entity. The beneficiary of an investment contract in Romania can be an investment fund, companies, or their projects that require financing and, in return for the investment, cede a portion of their capital to the investor. Financial instruments that can be used to establish an investment agreement in Romania include bonds and company shares that offer rights to future company earnings, distributed in the form of dividends.

Direct foreign investments bring a flow of capital from a foreign country, and with this, an investor acquires certain rights in the management of the company. Depending on the conditions stipulated in the investment contract in Romania, the investor may acquire voting rights in company decision-making or the right to dividends.

As mentioned above, investments can materialize through shares, bonds, or other financial instruments. These can also be made by a foreign investor, thus falling into the category of foreign investments in Romania. This type of investment differs from direct foreign investments in that it does not involve the investor’s participation in company management, and the investor benefits from short-term profits.
