Romania


Economy Overview
Romania
Romania is a market of 21 million inhabitants. A member of the EU since 2007, Romania has opened its economy to trade and foreign investment. Many foreign companies outsource in Romania, since the workforce is low-cost and qualified. And Romania is a major European agricultural producer and a large producer of automobiles. Growth of production in sectors such as manufacturing, construction, retail and services are foreseen once the current crisis alleviates. Romania imports machines, minerals, chemistry, computers, integrated circuits, aircraft parts and other defense equipment, wheat and automobiles. Main U.S. investments in Romania are in banking, energy, biotechnology, manufacturing, electronic components, automobile, telecommunications and film production. The business development policies of the Romanian government include tax reduction, support for private entrepreneurs, stimulation of free initiative and investments in transportation, education and other infrastructure.
