Eșecul reformei salarizării pune presiune pe ratingul României (Bloomberg)

Romania's failure to adopt a key salary law complicates its fiscal outlook and increases the risk of losing its investment-grade credit rating, according to a Bloomberg analysis. Political parties could not reach an agreement on the salary law, jeopardizing approximately €770 million in EU funds. This political deadlock raises concerns about the country's commitment to reducing its deficit in the coming years, which is crucial to avoid a downgrade to 'junk' status. The country is currently led by a caretaker government without a parliamentary majority, and its borrowing costs are among the highest in the EU.
