Romania's Finance Minister Alexandru Nazare will meet Fitch next Tuesday to discuss the country's improved fiscal standing and credit rating after fulfilling obligations. He says Romania's 2026 growth forecast is about 1% and the deficit target about 6%, with EU funds boosting investments. Fitch and Moody's confirmed ratings of BBB‑ and Baa3‑with negative outlooks, but fiscal measures have improved prospects. Premier Ilie Bolojan also met Moody's earlier. Romania's renegotiated PNRR and EU confidence reduce the cash deficit to around 7.7 % of GDP, signalling a shift from tense summer talks to more constructive dialogue. The meeting marks a new phase in Romania's relationship with rating agencies and the European Union.
