The new management should “repair what could be repaired” in the company’s activity, added Fenechiu.
Thus, CFR Marfa’s Board president is Aysun Mustafa, economist and banker, while general manager is Alexandru Dragos Draghici, legal advisor, with background in the management of national and multinational companies.
The other administrators are Liviu Radu, engineer, Bogdan Constantinescu, economist, Dan Constantinescu, engineer, Ionut Georgescu, legal advisor, and Dan Belcea, economist, according to the data announced by the Transport Ministry’s representatives.
According to Fenechiu, the activity of the new managers may last until July or “a little bit more,” as the ownership transfer could extend despite CFR Marfa’s deadline to appoint the winner of the privatization is scheduled June 20.
He added that CFR Marfa’s privatization process goes “according to schedule,” the company being currently evaluated for further offer.
A number of seven or eight companies are currently interested in CFR Marfa’s privatization, said the minister, without giving any further details.
Transport Ministry’s representatives also announced the structure of the company’s privatization Commission led by the secretary of state Cristian Ghibu.
CFR Marfa was supposed to be auctioned by the end of 2012, but the sale was delayed due to poor market conditions and regulatory proceedings. The government hired a consortium comprising U.S. consultancy firm Deloitte, Musat&Asociatii and France’s Systra to advise on the sale.
