This is done using two significant indicators, such as: the share of foreign banks in the total of the banks in a country and the share of foreign bank assets in the total bank assets in a country. It will also analyze the global character of the activity of foreign banks in Romania and their international character, with the focus on how these two aspects have evolved over time. This will be achieved by analyzing the indicator: FOREIGN claims of BIS reporting banks towards Romania. Annals of “Dunarea de Jos” University of Galati Fascicle I.

We are already talking about the Twitter generation or the Facebook generation. A relevant example is that of the recent riots in the Arab World (Tunis, Syria, Libya, Egypt and Lebanon), where social platforms had a very important role in mobilizing and organizing participants, or the one of the riots in Chisinau in 2009, where, in spite of the fact that the media channels were censored, young Moldavians mobilized themselves and kept people updated on the events that took place with the help of the Twitter social network. Considering their major social impact, the unprecedented rate at which these technologies spread around the world and their tendency to be adopted by companies, we decided to try and clear out a few aspects regarding their use by large companies and especially by accounting departments and professional accountants Annals of “Dunarea de Jos” University of Galati Fascicle I.
