Rectificarea bugetară, primul test al viitorului Guvern. Economist: „Soluția va fi să înghețăm investițiile și să reducem cheltuielile”

The upcoming budget rectification poses a significant challenge for the new government, as revenue targets have not been met and interest costs have risen. Economist Adrian Negrescu suggests that the government may need to freeze investments and cut expenses to manage urgent payments. The analysis indicates that the previous administration failed to achieve budgetary goals, leading to increased pressure on the new government. With the IMF revising Romania's economic growth downwards, the new administration must inspire confidence among creditors to secure necessary funding. Negrescu warns of potential wasteful spending by institutions to exhaust their budgets before year-end, which could exacerbate the budget deficit.
