The Minister of Finance, Alexandru Nazare, has indicated that the increase in pensions could vary significantly, depending on budget data. While the law suggests an indexation of over 11%, this is unlikely to happen. Economist Adrian Negrescu estimates a 3% increase, averaging 80 lei, while the Minister of Labor proposes a 7.3% increase, potentially raising the average pension by 200 lei. Nazare emphasized the need for a sustainable and prudent approach to pension adjustments, citing past increases that led to budgetary imbalances and higher inflation affecting vulnerable populations. Decisions regarding pension increases will be made once all budget figures are available.
