Romania’s authorities issue moderate economic growth forecast for coming years

Romania’s economy will rise by only 1% this year, after a moderate expansion estimated at 0.9% in 2025, according to the Autumn Forecast published by the Romanian state forecasting body, CNP. The growth will not accelerate greatly above 2% per annum in the coming years: 2.2% in 2027 after the worst part of the fiscal consolidation effort is over, and 2.4% in 2028.

However, the growth rate will return closer to those of more mature economies, 2.1%, in 2029.
