Triculescu replaces Ionut Misa, who was dismissed at the request of finance minister Eugen Teodorovici because the tax collection activity was not efficient enough, according to Mediafax. Misa was Teodorovici’s predecessor in the Mihai Tudose cabinet and the relationship between the two has been tense. Mihaela Triculescu is an economist with over 19 years of experience in the private sector, according to the Government’s official press release. In the last three years, she worked as an insolvency specialist and managed the insolvency process of several companies.
