A recent INSCOP survey reveals that 75% of Romanian entrepreneurs believe the country is heading in the wrong direction, primarily due to concerns over taxes and rising costs. The confidence in the economy has significantly declined, with only 16.6% feeling optimistic about the future. Many entrepreneurs are hesitant to invest or hire, with 62% planning no expansions in the coming year. The survey indicates a growing fear of increased euro rates and higher loan interest rates. Despite the pessimism, some entrepreneurs expect their financial situation to stabilize. Government officials emphasize the need for rebuilding trust and fostering economic growth, highlighting recent successful bond issuance as a positive sign.
