The optimism of chief executive officers in Romania is at the lowest level in the last five years. At the same time, Romanian companies are expanding into new sectors of activity, gaining market share and planning bolder acquisitions than ever, as shown by the local edition of the PwC CEO Survey 2026 report.
Only one in four CEOs in Romania (25%) expressed confidence in the growth of the company’s revenues in the next year, the lowest level in the last five years, and below the global average (30%) and that of Central and Eastern Europe (42%). Also, only 39% are confident in the growth prospects over three years, decreasing compared to previous editions.
