Overall, Romania’s macroeconomic situation is one of the strongest in EU in terms of real GDP growth, fiscal deficit and public debt, inflationary pressures and current account balance, with positive evolutions expected by some credit rating agencies.

The output gap is projected to close in the 2nd half of 2016 amid strong recovery of the internal demand, especially in the private sector. The real GDP growth rate was 3,8% in 2015 Q4 compared with 2014 Q4, one of the highest in EU28, with forecasts maintaining a positive outlook.

However, economic growth has been robust since 2013, driven by strong exports and strong industrial production in 2013 and 2014. At the same time, a gradual recovery of domestic demand took place during 2014. Real GDP is estimated to have increased by 3.7 % in 2015 on account of surging consumption and recovering investment. In current prices, the nominal GDP is above EUR 160 billion according Eurostat.
