România poate ajunge vineri în „junk”. Economist: Indexarea pensiilor ar putea fi anulată. Salariile, reduse • Newsweek România
Romania faces potential downgrade to 'junk' status, which could freeze pensions and reduce public sector salaries. Economist Adrian Negrescu warns that financial pressures may force the government to reconsider public finances, impacting pensioners and possibly leading to salary cuts. A downgrade would complicate state financing, increasing borrowing costs and necessitating budget cuts or tax hikes. However, experts believe that a downgrade does not automatically mean payment suspensions. Romania's situation is not directly comparable to Greece's past crisis, but the risks to public finances remain significant.
