NAGA Group AG, the German fintech company behind an all-in-one financial SuperApp, has integrated shares listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange (BSE) into its investment platform, becoming the first international retail broker to provide direct access to Romanian equities.
This strategic expansion gives NAGA's global customer base the opportunity to invest directly in previously less accessible segments of Romania's growing economy, further diversifying their investment portfolios with exposure to Eastern European markets.
The Romanian stock market offers investors exposure to traditional industrial production and a well-established energy sector. Companies such as automaker Dacia, energy firms OMV Petrom, Romgaz, and nuclear power producer Nuclearelectrica are highlighted as globally recognised businesses with sustainable dividend payments and high trading liquidity.
Octavian Patrascu, CEO of The NAGA Group AG, stated: "In recent years, the Romanian economy has experienced strong growth; however, access to its capital market has remained limited for international retail investors. It is time to change that. Investing should not be a privilege – it should be the norm. Our mission is to break down barriers and make the stock market truly accessible to everyone. That is why we are starting this year by allowing NAGA customers to trade shares listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange with zero commission. And this is just the beginning – our goal is to maintain the lowest trading fees in the local market, making investing smarter, more efficient, and aligned with the long-term success of retail investors."
The addition of Romanian equities expands NAGA's offering to over 5,000 financial instruments, including listed companies and ETFs from more than 10 international markets. To promote the new offering, NAGA is running a promotional campaign with zero-commission trading on Bucharest-listed shares until the end of 2025 for customers who register before 15 May 2025.
NAGA Group, which trades on the XETRA exchange under the ticker N4G, operates in over 100 countries with nine local offices. The company's platform combines social trading, stock and cryptocurrency investing, and neo-banking services in a single application. Additional features include a physical VISA card with fiat and automatic crypto conversion capabilities, social feeds, and copy-trading functionality allowing users to replicate successful traders' strategies.
