About Us
Look, political risk isn't something you read about in the news and forget. It hits your bottom line. We've spent 13 years watching businesses get blindsided by currency swaps, sanctions, or regime changes they didn't see coming. Shield Asset Shield exists because we got tired of seeing smart operators lose big on bets they thought were safe. We're here to make sure that doesn't happen to you. Our approach? Straightforward hedging strategies that actually work in the real world. No fancy jargon. No false promises. Just solid protection for the assets you've worked hard to build.
Over time, we’ve built a reputation for reliability, quality, and clear communication. We treat each project as a partnership and aim for outcomes that last.

The people behind Shield Asset Shield
Adrian Vasile
Founder & Director of Strategy
Spent 8 years at a major investment bank before realizing they were terrible at political risk. Now he runs the research operation and makes the final call on every major hedge we deploy. Knows Eastern European politics better than most diplomats.
Marta Ionescu
Head of Geopolitical Analysis
Former analyst for an intelligence contractor. She builds the models that flag risks before they become obvious. Obsessive about data. Refuses to make predictions based on gut feeling alone.
Stefan Popescu
Portfolio Structuring
The guy who turns complicated risk into workable hedges. 12 years designing structures for energy companies and export traders. Gets frustrated with anyone who doesn't understand their own exposure.
We’re a team that values ownership, clarity, and growth. We celebrate wins, learn fast, and keep client outcomes at the center.

Our Story
Started in 2011 when our founder realized major banks weren't really protecting mid-sized companies from political risk—they were just moving money around. Figured there had to be a better way. Spent the first few years learning from failures (ours and our clients'). By 2015, we'd developed a methodology that actually predicted three major emerging market crises before they hit the headlines. That got people's attention. Since then, we've protected clients across 47 different jurisdictions, from Eastern Europe to Southeast Asia. We're still based right here in Oradea, still lean, still hungry.
