Seven in ten Romanians do not invest, more than half believe public pension system is under pressure, research shows

More than half of the Romanian respondents (51%) to an ING Research study on savings and investment behavior conducted by Ipsos say they find it difficult or barely manage to cover their current expenses, a higher percentage than the European average (44%).

However, nearly half believe that a very large financial reserve is not necessary to start investing, and 46% believe that a financial reserve of less than half of the household’s monthly income is sufficient.
