Metz said German investors should expect to witness some shocking situations in terms of local legislation, because, he went on, certain legal provisions are enforced overnight, which may come as a shock for German partners. He stressed the Romanian authorities never consider the economic impact and effects before making decisions.

According to Metz, Romania is still seen as a good place for investments, but nobody cares to protect the country as an industrial location in the future. He also pointed out that Romania has grown a lot in the eyes of German investors, but the country fails to capitalize on its competitive advantages.

EBS Romania was founded in June 2000 by a German standard software manufacturer. The company has outsourced part of the software development for its commercial solutions to Romania. In 2002, the company was acquired by its current owner Daniel Metz through a management buy-out.

EBS Romania is strategic partner of companies SAP Romania, Microsoft, IBM and Oracle.
