Ce se întâmplă cu inflaţia până la sfârșitul anului - prognoză BNR - Economica.net

The annual inflation rate in Romania is expected to rise until the end of the year, driven by increasing prices of fuels, energy, and other commodities, including food. The National Bank of Romania (BNR) highlights that inflationary pressures will become more evident in the long term due to aggregate demand adjustments following budget corrections initiated in 2025. However, uncertainties remain regarding future budgetary measures post-2026. The ongoing Middle Eastern conflict and energy crisis pose significant risks to economic activity and inflation, affecting consumer purchasing power and business profits. The BNR emphasizes the importance of maximizing European funds to mitigate the effects of budget consolidation and external conflicts. The BNR's board decided to maintain the monetary policy interest rate at 6.50% per year, along with other key rates.
