The Ministry of Finance announces a reduction of the current account deficit to 3.4% in 2025 and a decrease in the trade deficit of goods by 1.4%. Foreign direct investments have increased by 45%.

The Ministry of Finance reported progress in the macroeconomic correction of Romania, with a current account deficit that increased to 3.4% in 2025, compared to 34.4% in 2024. The trade deficit in goods has begun to correct, recording a decrease of 1.4% after a significant deterioration in the previous year.

Foreign direct investment flows increased by over 45%, reaching approximately 8.1 billion euros, indicating increased investor confidence in the Romanian economy. The adjustments are related to fiscal consolidation and tempering of domestic consumption, and Romania is moving towards a growth model based on investments and production. Also, for the first time, personnel expenses have been reduced, and public administration reform remains a priority. The Minister of Finance, Alexandru Nazare, emphasized the importance of maintaining a stable framework to strengthen these results. The macroeconomic adjustment continues to be a gradual process, but recent progress suggests a stabilization trajectory.
