România, la un pas de ratingul „junk”. Încep discuțiile decisive cu S&P. Nazare: „Avem argumente puternice” • Newsweek România

Romania is set to discuss its sovereign rating with S&P Global Ratings, with a decision expected on October 2. A downgrade could classify the country as 'junk', impacting financing costs. Interim Finance Minister Alexandru Nazare argues that Romania has strong arguments to maintain its rating, citing achievable budget deficit targets. Political instability remains a concern, as the country has been under an interim government for four months. Nazare reassures that there is currently no risk to pensions and salaries, despite rising borrowing costs. Fitch and Moody's have retained Romania's investment-grade status, making the upcoming S&P decision critical.
