The per capita purchasing power amounts to EUR 9,092 in Romania this year, which puts the Romanians almost 52% below the European average and improves their ranking by one place to 32nd, according to the NIQ GfK Purchasing Power Europe 2024 study.
The average in Europe increased to EUR 18,768. However, the report found significant differences between the 42 European countries, with people in Liechtenstein, Switzerland, and Luxembourg having a much higher net income than in the rest of Europe, while the purchasing power is lowest in Kosovo, Belarus, and Ukraine. The big winner is the United Kingdom, which has moved up three places in the overall European comparison.
