Pensii 2027: cât ar trebui să crească de la 1 ianuarie și cât ar putea primi, de fapt, pensionarii

Starting January 1, 2027, pensions in Romania are expected to increase based on a new indexing mechanism. The actual increase will depend on inflation, salary growth, and budget decisions. The Reference Point Value (VPR) has remained at 81 lei for 2025 and 2026, but the law stipulates its adjustment starting in 2027. The increase formula combines average annual inflation and half of the real growth in average gross salary. Current estimates suggest a potential increase of 7-8%, but these are not official figures. The actual pension amount will vary based on individual points accumulated by each pensioner. The budget for 2027 will also play a crucial role in determining the feasibility of these increases.
