The Bucharest Stock Exchange, which last saw an initial public offeringBloomberg Terminal by the Romanian government in June 2014, may get a boost from the sale of a stake in postal operator Posta Romana SA next year, Chief Executive Officer Ludwik Sobolewski said.

“Posta Romana is my favorite item on the list of Romanian privatizations,” Sobolewski said in an interview in London on Sept. 17. “Next year may be marked by the huge IPO of the post of Japan and, hopefully, another one coming out of Romania, which is one of the fastest-growing economies in eastern Europe."
