Romania is looking to return to the international capital markets in the next few weeks, with a number of banks talking to the sovereign issuer. Any deal would be Romania's first offering since the rarely traded DM600m 2002 issue launched in 1997. Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter and Merrill Lynch are all said to have had recent discussions with Romanian officials. But ING Barings is already widely believed to be marketing a Eu300m seven to 10 year bond for launch by the end of October.
