România a intrat în stagflaţie, cu o stagnare a activităţii economice şi cu o inflaţie care afectează consumul • Newsweek România

Romania has officially entered stagflation, marked by stagnant economic activity and persistent inflation affecting consumption. An analysis indicates that rising energy prices may prolong this economic freeze until mid-2027. Despite challenges, the business environment shows resilience, with nominal GDP growth reported, although real GDP has declined. Key sectors like retail and industry have seen significant contractions, impacting overall economic performance. While public investment has increased, it has not offset the negative effects of inventory reductions. Inflation peaked earlier this year but has since decreased, although core inflation continues to rise, complicating the economic outlook. The government must focus on attracting EU funds to stimulate growth.
