The uncertainty of government measures and the instability of the political scene could act as a dampener for the Romanian economy in 2011, a year when regaining trust would amount to the breath of fresh air that the Romanian economy needs, is the message suggested by Codruț Pascu, managing partner of Roland Berger Strategy Consultants, in his presentation at the ZF Gala.
“I strongly believe the most important factor in short and medium term development of the Romanian economy has to do with what the Britons call ‘revival of the animal spirits’,” Pascu said.
In a “weather bulletin” of the Romanian economy at macroeconomic level, as well as on a sector-by-sector basis, the Roland Berger consultant identified the sectors that will not need umbrellas in 2011: pharmaceuticals, private medical services, as well as production of electrical equipment and machines.
There are positive prospects also for the auto, energy, utility, oil and gas industries, logistics and distribution, with clouds still hanging over constructions and real estate, as well as over the textile industry.
