BRCC, together with Banca Transilvania, is delighted to invite you to our upcoming conference “Macroeconomic updates for 2023 in Romania”.
Discover the main macroeconomic forecast from our experts at Banca Transilvania.
After a strong 2022, Romania’s economy is set to slow down with real GDP growth at around 2% in the coming years due higher inflation, tighter financial conditions and the fallout from the aggression against Ukraine. Inflation is expected to peak at the end of 2022, remaining still high in 2023, before declining in 2024. Unemployment will hover around 5-6%.
The purpose of the event is to promote the discussion of macroeconomic updates, with a focus on relevance for monetary policy and financial stability. This event will focus on the challenges that Romania is facing, including paths of recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical tensions, other external factors, elevated inflation, and addressing climate change risks.
Our event can provide useful insight to those working in the following areas:
- Top Management
- Business executives and middle managers involved in business strategy and investment
- Senior executives
- Representatives of corporations

The event will be most relevant for top management representatives, senior executives, company representatives involved in business planning, management and investment decisions.
