Brussels – Romania is set to undergo a comprehensive review in 2025 to assess macroeconomic imbalances, as announced by the European Commission in the Alert Mechanism Report. This report is part of the autumn package of the European Semester, which addresses the socioeconomic challenges anticipated for 2025 and was published on December 18.
“We will carry out detailed analyses again for the nine member states identified last spring as having imbalances or excessive imbalances. These countries include Cyprus, Germany, Greece, Italy, Hungary, the Netherlands, Romania, Slovakia, and Sweden,” stated Valdis Dombrovskis, the Commissioner for Economy and Productivity. The findings from this review will be revealed in the spring.
The Alert Mechanism Report is a tool designed to pinpoint potential macroeconomic imbalances that may affect the economies of individual member states or the EU as a whole. This thorough assessment draws from analyses conducted in March 2024, along with economic forecasts from the fall of the same year, highlighting Romania’s economic and fiscal vulnerabilities, including its excessive deficit.
The findings from the 2025 assessment will inform the creation of tailored recommendations for each country, which will be part of the spring package of the European Semester. (18.12.2024)
