Bloomberg: Fitch avertizează că România riscă retrogradarea la „junk” dacă se prelungește criza politică

Fitch Ratings warns that Romania risks losing its investment-grade rating due to ongoing political instability and lack of a credible fiscal plan. The agency will reassess Romania's rating in January 2027. Analyst Malgorzata Krzywicka emphasizes that the government's ability to reduce the budget deficit is crucial. Recent political developments have complicated government formation, with europarliamentarian Siegfried Mureșan nominated as prime minister. A failure to establish a stable government could further jeopardize Romania's fiscal predictability and sovereign rating. Fitch notes that Romania needs significant fiscal adjustments to stabilize public debt growth and improve tax collection amid high inflation and weak economic growth.
