Record public investments amounting to about 8% of GDP in 2026 could offset the negative fiscal impulse generated by consolidation measures and support a firmer economic expansion next year, Daniel Dăianu, President of the Fiscal Council, told Ziarul Financiar on November 13. Romania anticipates economic growth of under 1% in 2025.
Dăianu said the unusually high investment level, achievable if available funds under the EU Resilience Facility are fully absorbed, would represent a temporary but significant boost for the economy.
