Leul rămâne sub presiune. „BNR poate tempera mișcările, dar nu le poate opri”, spune un expert

The Romanian leu faces renewed pressure due to a stronger dollar, declining BNR reserves, and political uncertainty. The euro exchange rate reached 5.3470 lei, with the BNR intervening to stabilize fluctuations. Despite adequate reserves, the BNR cannot prevent necessary macroeconomic adjustments. The trade deficit remains a concern, and the dollar's appreciation impacts import costs significantly. Future projections suggest the euro could reach 5.4-5.5 lei by the end of 2027, with potential for further depreciation if political instability persists.
