The Romanian National Bank (BNR) estimates an inflation of 2.1% for the end of this year and 2.4% for the end of 2016, said yesterday Mugur Isarescu, BNR governor.

In November 2014, BNR announced a 2.2% inflation for end - 2015. The decrease in volatile prices, triggered by the drop in oil prices, determined the revision of the November inflation estimates.

The regional political tensions, the situation in Greece and the euro area may put the current prognosis at risk, Isarescu added, cited by local Agerpres.
