Romania: an ever growing EU market

An attractive investment opportunity in Central and Eastern Europe

Why Romania?

Romania is the second largest country in Central and Eastern Europe in terms of size and is situated at the crossroads of three thriving markets: the European Union, the CIS states and the Middle East.

Romania’s economic development increased significantly in 2016 following a rise in domestic demand. This resulted in Romania registering the highest economic growth in the European Union of 4.8% of the GDP.

The country has a competitive labour force and a highly skilled talent pool. This, along with a series of fiscal measures introduced in 2017 and an ease in the bureaucratic system, make Romania one of the most attractive investment destinations on the Central and Eastern European map.

Manufacturing, financial services and trade sectors are responsible for more than half of Romania’s FDI stock, followed by IT and BPO/SSC. These areas  are considered key drivers for foreign investment, with a constant annual growth of 9%.
