People close to the matter told MEDIAFAX that ING is looking to rent several storeys in a building on Iancu de Hunedoara boulevard.
“ING has already contracted interior design services for the layout on a total surface of some 6,000 sqm,” the people said.
Bank officials refused to comment on the information, claiming a final decision is pending.
Real estate specialists said the bank has not yet decided whether it will move its entire operation out of the current Kiseleff headquarters or keep top management in the old headquarters, should it receive an advantageous counteroffer.
“I believe this is not just about money, since, to my understanding, the central headquarters staff was greater than the capacity of the Kiseleff building, and some of the divisions were already functioning in other locations,” the people said.
