Romania will celebrate its National Day on December 1 with a large military parade in Bucharest featuring Romanian and allied troops. The event will also showcase an extensive display of military equipment and aircraft at the Arch of Triumph.
More than 2,900 servicemembers and specialists from the Ministry of National Defense, Interior Ministry, Romanian Intelligence Service, Special Telecommunications Service, and the National Administration of Penitentiaries will take part in the parade, beginning 11 am on December 1. Moreover, participants will have the chance to see 220 military vehicles and systems, 60 of which in a static exhibition, as well as 45 aircraft.
According to the Ministry of Defense (MApN), foreign participation will be significant, with 240 troops from France, North Macedonia, Moldova, Poland, Portugal, Spain, the United States, and other NATO-contributing nations joining the procession.
To accommodate the parade, the Bucharest Traffic Brigade will implement road restrictions and manage traffic in this period.
Following tradition, 21 cannon salutes will be fired during the national anthem on November 29 and December 1 in the southeastern area of Bucharest’s King Michael I Park. The Defense Ministry has warned that salutes and aircraft flyovers may generate noise levels that could disturb residents and pets.
On National Day, the Romanian flag will be raised at all military institutions, naval vessels will display full ceremonial flags, and a military equipment exhibition will be open near the Arch of Triumph until 2:30 pm.
Romanian troops deployed abroad will also mark the occasion with military ceremonies.

A couple of years ago, Romania’s Defense Ministry concluded a USD 400 million deal with Israeli company Elbit for the development of seven Watchkeeper X systems, which will be used to detect Russian operations near the border areas. The drones will be delivered in a few months, according to the manufacturer, as reported by Digi24.
Each Watchkeeper X system consists of a command center, telecommunications systems, and three drones.
The aircraft will be built in Romania, but the first drones are currently being tested in Israel. They fly at an altitude of 1,000 meters and detect any target within a 200-kilometer radius. They are also equipped with a state-of-the-art camera which detects people from a distance of 4–5 kilometers.
The mission of the Watchkeeper X drones is primarily surveillance, but the aircraft can also be equipped with missiles if necessary. The drones can remain airborne for 16 hours without refueling and significantly assist troop coordination by providing real-time information on enemy forces.
The contract between Romania and Elbit was signed in 2023, but the delivery of the first drones was delayed due to the war between Israel and Hamas. At the beginning of the year, the Army approved a 6-month delay, which may still be exceeded, leading to penalties.
Company representatives say, however, that the first Watchkeeper X drones will be delivered in a few months and will become operational in mid-2026.
“We have opened several facilities. All delivered drones are produced in Romania, together with the control stations. The composite materials are made in Chitila, the aircraft is assembled in Bacău, and the ground control station is produced in Bucharest. After the system is delivered, maintenance will also be carried out in Romania,” Elbit representatives told Digi24.
The 7 Watchkeeper X systems will be distributed among all the General Staffs of the Romanian Army: 3 to the Land Forces, 3 to the Naval Forces, and one system to the Air Force. The drones can be used for at least 15 years, after which they will go through a modernization process.
The Watchkeeper X drone has not been tested in combat; however, its predecessor, the Watchkeeper model, proved to be of great assistance in the war in Afghanistan. The United Kingdom used the aircraft to locate insurgents and ensure the safe withdrawal of allied troops.
Once delivered, the Watchkeeper drones will become the Army’s main asset for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions. In combat scenarios, the Ministry of Defense can rely on the Bayraktar drones to attack enemy positions.
Drones have been the subject of renewed military investments around the world, given their essential role in the war in Ukraine. Romania, in particular, has also seen Russian drones violate its airspace around 13 times since the start of the war. The most recent incursion took place on November 25.
In response to the drone incursion, the commander of the United States Army Forces in Europe and Africa, General Christopher Donahue, said that “Romania will soon have a new military system capable of shooting down drones that enter the national airspace,” without the need to scramble jets. During a visit to the ‘Mihail Kogălniceanu’ Air Base, together with defense minister Ionuț Moșteanu, the American general stated that Romania will always remain a central figure in this part of the Alliance.

Update 2: Defense minister Ionuț Moșteanu said that an unarmed drone was found on Tuesday in a locality in Vaslui County, Agerpres reported. Speaking during a visit to the Mihail Kogălniceanu Air Base, he mentioned that the drone likely matched the one Romanian fighter jets had attempted to intercept in the morning and confirmed that it went down on its own, without being shot down.
Update: Colonel Corneliu Pavel, Defense Ministry spokesperson, announced that radar systems no longer showed any aerial targets, prompting the suspension of Ro-Alert warnings in Tulcea and Vrancea counties at 10:00 and in Galați at 10:08, News.ro reported. According to him, the radar data indicated a single drone likely entered through northern Tulcea County, while signals detected over the other two counties appeared only intermittently. The incident marked the 13th unauthorized incursion of an unmanned aircraft into national territory.
Meanwhile, the neighbouring Republic of Moldova's Defense Ministry also said that its Army detected six drones crossing its airspace without authorization on Tuesday morning. "One of them crashed onto the roof of a house in the village of Cuhureștii de Jos, Florești district," reads the announcement.
Initial story: The Ministry of Defense (MApN) said the Romanian Air Force detected two drone incursions into national airspace on Tuesday morning, November 25, triggering the deployment of German and Romanian fighter jets and emergency alerts in two eastern counties, near the border with Ukraine.
According to the ministry, radar systems identified an aerial target approaching Romania’s airspace near Tulcea County, prompting the scramble of two German Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft from Mihail Kogălniceanu Air Base at 06:28.
The drone crossed into Romania from the direction of Vylkove, Ukraine, and moved toward the Chilia Veche area in Tulcea. A Ro-Alert warning was issued to residents at 06:55.
The Eurofighter pilots later reported radar contact with the drone at 07:11, by which time it had re-entered Ukrainian airspace.
A second alert was triggered shortly afterward. At 07:37, two Romanian F-16 Fighting Falcon jets from Borcea Air Base were ordered into the air, and a Ro-Alert message was sent to Galați County at 07:48.
Radar systems detected a new drone incursion into national airspace at 07:50 in the Galați region, and the F-16s made radar contact with the target.
The situation was still under monitoring at the time this story was published.
The incident comes roughly one week after another drone was spotted entering national airspace during Russian attacks on Ukraine, which also prompted the scramble of German and Romanian fighter jets.
New legal framework allows the military to neutralise or destroy drones and other unauthorized aerial vehicles entering national airspace. Under the law, such measures must align with international regulations, take into account all circumstances, and prioritize the protection of human life, with destruction considered only as a last resort.

Alt.Real and RongoDesign have been named the winners of the 2025 Romania ClimAccelerator in the Seed Stage category, the organizers announced. The program is dedicated to supporting early-stage climate-focused startups.
This year’s accelerator selected 25 startups split between two tracks: 10 in the Pre-Seed Stage for early teams with a validated idea and 15 in the Seed Stage for companies with a working prototype.
The Seed Stage finalists presented their solutions during Demo Day on November 17 in front of an audience of investors, partners, and representatives of the local innovation ecosystem. In an exceptional decision, two winners were chosen.
Alt.Real is developing an integrated ecosystem aimed at speeding up the transition to green energy by combining digital tools, education, and technical expertise to support the adoption of safe and efficient solar systems in homes and SMEs. The startup aims to become a leader in decentralized energy communities where households, businesses, and institutions produce and exchange renewable energy locally.
RongoDesign creates sustainable materials from mycelium using agro-industrial waste to offer natural alternatives to plastic and polystyrene. The company also won the 2025 edition of the “Românii sunt Antreprenori” competition.
Startups were evaluated based on six criteria: problem definition, innovation, market potential, business model, team competencies, and expected social, economic and environmental impact.
Each winner received a place in the six-month Startup Impact Lab program, free access to Impact Hub Bucharest events, and an extended promotion package. They will also benefit from coworking space access, mentorship sessions, and priority entry to future accelerator programs.
The audience award went to Verde CBD Pharma, whose founder, Ciprian Boboia, presented prefabricated hempcrete panels designed to replace brick or concrete blocks in sustainable home construction.

Verbund Wind Power Romania, the Romanian subsidiary of Austrian energy company Verbund, has selected a consortium comprising Prime Batteries Technology and Enevo Group for the supply and integration of a new Battery Energy Storage System - BESS with a capacity of 76 MWh and an absorption/delivery capacity of 48MW.
Verbund operates a 226 MW wind farm in the Casimcea region, in Tulcea County, since 2012 and has announced the acquisition of a 272 MW wind power project from Monsson, as well as the construction of a 60 MW photovoltaic plant with Simtel also at Casimcea.
The BESS will be located within the existing Casimcea wind farm complex. Prime Batteries Technology & Enevo join forces to deliver the full EPC scope, with construction scheduled to begin in early 2026
The installation is designed to enhance the integration of renewable energy into the grid and improve the operational flexibility of the company's local renewable assets.
A consortium of Prime Batteries Technology and Enevo Group will deliver the full EPC scope, including design, equipment supply, system integration, installation, commissioning, and the handover of the fully operational battery storage facility. Construction is scheduled to begin in February 2026, and the estimated date of commissioning is set for September 2026.
"This battery storage project represents a key element in our strategy to modernize Romania's renewable energy infrastructure and support grid stability. We are confident in our partnership with Prime Batteries Technology and Enevo Group to deliver this important facility," said Adrian Borotea, Verbund Wind Power Romania managing director.

The forests around the mountain city of Brașov and the Postăvaru Massif may be home to the largest densities of large owls in the world, according to a study by biologist Călin Vasile Hodor from Wildlife Management Consulting and professor Dan Traian Ionescu from the Faculty of Forestry Brașov, as quoted by BizBrasov.ro.
The study looked at the presence, distribution, and density of owl species in the forests administered by the Kronstadt Local Public Forestry Administration in order to identify the two owl species (small and large) in the forests of the Postăvaru Massif.
The research also considered habitat structure, the relationship between the presence of owls and forest management, including comparisons between intervention and non-intervention areas, according to BizBrasov.
Of the 50 points in which the research was conducted, one or both owl species were identified in 44 points, representing 88% of the total monitoring points, and in only 6 of the points there were no detections. The total number of owl specimens was 73, of which 20 were large owls and 53 were small owls. Their density was calculated starting from a 500 m radius around the monitoring points.
Summing all observations, the following densities resulted: small owl, 0.94 territories/100 ha (9.4 t./1000 ha); large owl, 3.8 t./1000 ha. In the case of the small owl, the calculated density is within the limits known at the European level,
Large owls in the area, however, represent almost double the highest previously known densities. As such, the forest structure and existing food resources are optimal for this species in the Postăvaru Massif area, according to the researchers.

Prices in Bucharest’s premium residential market have doubled over the past few years, reaching record highs amid a severe shortage of supply in the city’s most exclusive neighborhoods, Cushman & Wakefield Echinox said. Areas such as Primăverii, Kiseleff, Aviatorilor, and Dorobanți continue to dominate demand.
Over the past 2 or 3 years, prices for premium properties delivered after 2018 have mostly doubled, now averaging between EUR 6,000 and EUR 8,000 per sqm in top locations - and in some cases far exceeding these levels.
“There have also been specific cases where investments of millions of euros have been made solely in finishes and/or amenities, thus rendering it almost impossible to calculate a standard price per sqm for such unique residences,” the company said.
Properties delivered over the last 8 years, ranging from apartments to villas that have undergone complex restoration and refurbishment works, and which feature exceptional specifications such as smart home systems or automated parking ramps, have all contributed to driving up values in this market segment.
Raluca Plavita, Head of Residential Agency at Cushman & Wakefield Echinox, commented: “One of the main drivers of this price growth relates to the extremely limited supply. In the past 5 or 6 years, no new developments received the necessary permits required in order to commence construction in these premium locations, and vacant land plots are virtually non-existent. The current legislation imposes strict restrictions on the demolition and conversion of older buildings in these protected areas, thus making the existing properties increasingly exclusive and difficult to replicate.”
Price variations remain substantial even within the same district, depending on micro-location, construction year, and overall building quality.
While areas like Floreasca benefit from their proximity to office hubs, they generally do not reach the price levels of the most prestigious central neighborhoods. Even within Dorobanți, its micro areas show significant price differences depending on location, year of construction, and overall building quality.
Cushman & Wakefield Echinox expects prices to continue rising for “truly valuable” homes in exceptional locations, which increasingly function as long-term portfolio assets. Some properties in the agency’s portfolio are already on their second ownership cycle, with a few even converted into office spaces - a process made more complex by heritage protections and lengthy permitting.
The firm defines premium properties by several criteria, starting with location, followed by surface area, ceiling height, layout, en-suite bedrooms, terraces, gardens, swimming pools, premium finishes, and advanced security systems. Plavita noted that clients are not only pursuing a residence but also a secure investment and a distinctive lifestyle.
Cushman & Wakefield Echinox manages one of the most prominent residential portfolios on the Romanian market, valued at more than EUR 200 million and including high-end villas and penthouses in the most sought-after districts. Its most expensive listing exceeds EUR 13 million and features over 200 meters of frontage on Lake Floreasca, an 8,000 sqm landscaped garden, and a 3,000 sqm residence with bespoke finishes.
Another standout property, priced above EUR 12 million, is an award-winning building near the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that blends a preserved 1940s façade with modern architecture and underground parking for 25 cars. The agency also exclusively represents a historic villa on Aviatorilor Boulevard designed by renowned architect Duiliu Marcu.

New legislative proposals in Romania aim to ban the euthanasia of healthy dogs and formally recognize animals as living beings with rights and protections under national law, Digi24 reported. The package unveiled on Monday, November 24, by Andrei Baciu, an MP from the National Liberal Party (PNL), aims to overhaul the country’s approach to managing stray animals.
Baciu said the reforms focus on sterilisation, microchipping, accountability, and “respect for life,” marking what initiators describe as a shift from outdated and abusive practices.
A public petition backing the changes has gathered more than 215,000 signatures in recent weeks. “I want to thank everyone who signed to support this legislative project,” Andrei Baciu said.
The proposals would require county and local councils to set up specialised structures to manage animal welfare, including dedicated services for stray dogs. They also call for a mandatory county-level census of stray animals and the creation of medium-term action plans with dedicated funding.
“This begins with a clear analysis of the problems, a census of dogs in every county, and a medium-term action plan with the necessary financial resources to protect citizens and ensure proper treatment of animals,” Baciu said, as quoted by Digi24.
One of the most significant changes would be the elimination of euthanasia for healthy dogs, replacing it with what initiators describe as effective, humane measures - sterilisation and microchipping.
Local police would also gain broader authority to intervene in cases where an animal’s life is in danger.
Hilde Tudora, head of the Animal Protection Service at the Ilfov County Council, said the three bills represent a major step toward modernising animal welfare policies.
“Recognising animals as living beings is a natural step for a modern, civilised society,” she said. “In a civilised society, dogs should not be on the streets. People should not be bitten, nor should they fear walking outside, and animals should not be killed.”
One of the proposals extends beyond pets, introducing new standards for farm animals, particularly hens, which would be raised on the ground and in ecological conditions to improve food quality. The reforms would also allow police to enter properties without a warrant in urgent cases of animal cruelty.

The European Commission, under the Semester Package published on November 25, included Romania among the 19 of the 27 EU countries with compliant fiscal developments and prospects, based on the Report on action taken, submitted by the Romanian authorities on October 16.
For nine Member States, including Romania, the Excessive Deficit Procedure (EDP) is held in abeyance, meaning that no further procedural steps are taken at this stage, but that the ongoing procedure remains open and the Member States remain bound by the respective Council recommendation.
The Commission will reassess the situation for these countries next spring, when outturn data for 2025 becomes available.
"It is a positive assessment by the European Commission. We have a confirmation that there is no longer a risk of losing European funds," explained finance minister Alexandru Nazare.
The decision that temporarily waives sanctions under the Excessive Deficit Procedure (EDP) for Romania meets the consensus expectations that have improved after the EcoFin received on July 8 a first package of measures legislated by the new government in Bucharest, after the country repeatedly failed for years to address the issues and report to the Commission. But the lack of details and the frugal communication may indicate the European Commission is further raising the expectations for the fiscal and budgetary conduct of the Romanian authorities, after a more cooperative approach with the newly formed government during the summer.
The decision indicates that the European Commission is relaxing its guidance provided in June for the construction of the first package of budgetary measures, which is now seen as the main (and the sole, so far) driver for the fiscal consolidation in 2026. This places greater responsibility on the ruling coalition, which still struggles to reach an agreement and to promote the second package of budgetary measures.
By assuming a 6.2% of GDP public deficit in 2026 based on only the first package of measures, the European Commission sets a high target for the government of Romania, which still has to wait for the Constitutional Court's ruling on some fiscal measures before drafting the 2026 budget plan.
The 11-page report, tagged "Anexa," submitted by Romania on October 16 and available only in Romanian, included in the Semester Package as received from Bucharest, is particularly frugal. This may be the annual report Romania failed to deliver by April 15 under the Excessive Deficit Procedure (EDP).
No revised Medium-Term Fiscal-Structural Plan (MTFSP), supposed to replace the detailed 21-page Plan submitted in October and endorsed by the Commission on January 21, is attached to Anexa, according to the information available publicly.

Finqware (EUR 0.857 million revenues in 2024) offers solutions for automating cash management, accounting, and reconciliation activities of companies' financial operations.
Questo (EUR 2.85 million) created a platform that allows real-world exploration of tourist attractions with the help of games made based on information related to the history and culture of each destination.

Also, the local startup Licenseware was included in the "Companies to Watch" category, which brings together the fastest-growing companies between 2022 and 2024, but which do not yet meet the criteria to enter the main category of the Fast 50 top. The company, which is in 6th place, with a growth rate of 331%, offers solutions for software license management.

The French group Groupe Atlantic is set to inaugurate the factory in Ariceştii Rahtivani, Prahova County, in the coming weeks, a greenfield investment of over EUR 50 million, announced Ziarul Financiar.
So far, about EUR 40 million has been invested, and the remaining EUR 10 million is planned by the end of 2026.
It is the giant's first production unit in Central and Eastern Europe, which will be used by the group to supply Europe with HVAC products.
"We didn't have any factories in Central and Eastern Europe. We chose Romania because it is a member of the EU, because it is a competitive market, and because there is an industrial history, which allowed us to find well-trained employees," said Florent Blain, recently appointed general manager of the local factory.

HILS Development has announced a EUR 200 million investment in a new large-scale mixed-use residential project in northern Bucharest, marking the company’s expansion into one of the capital’s most dynamic growth areas.

With more than 12,000 homes delivered in its 20 years of activity, HILS Development remains one of the leading players in Bucharest’s residential and mixed-use market. The company was founded by entrepreneur Ionuț Negoiță.

HORIZON CITY, a €130 million residential project, is emerging as one of the most solid and forward-thinking developments in the Pipera area—both through its scale and through the modern direction it sets for the new residential standards in the north. Developed across nearly 23,000 sqm, with 699 apartments and 926 parking spaces, the project brings together connectivity, functionality and a balanced approach to residential comfort.
Located on Pipera Boulevard, in a district where the residential market has matured significantly, HORIZON CITY benefits from close proximity to business hubs, international schools, medical clinics, extensive retail and strategic road infrastructure. Connectivity has become a decisive factor for buyers and investors alike, and the project aligns naturally with this market evolution.
“Connectivity and easy access to infrastructure are key decision drivers today. HORIZON CITY responds to this market maturity through its positioning, planning and a concept built around the real needs of the northern area,” says Cătălin Apetri, Development Director, Horizon City.
The 699 apartments are integrated within a masterplan designed around natural light, efficient layouts and immediate access to essential facilities. Two levels of underground parking and modern vertical infrastructure support an optimal flow throughout the development, while the construction solutions prioritise durability, efficiency and reduced maintenance costs—critical elements in a market increasingly focused on stability and predictability.
“We focused on long-lasting solutions, high comfort levels and a strategic location that serves the needs of a dynamic community,” adds Cătălin Apetri, Development Director, Horizon City.
The development comes at a favourable urban moment, marked by several significant public investments. Among them is the upcoming suspended passage on Petricani Road, a project expected to improve traffic and enhance mobility in the area. Nearby, the local authority has budgeted the development of a public parking facility, a commercial centre and a multipurpose hall, completing the wider urban ecosystem around HORIZON CITY.
Against this backdrop, representatives of North Bucharest Investments highlight the project’s commercial potential:
“Infrastructure upgrades and the area’s momentum significantly increase the project’s attractiveness. At the pre-sales stage, we are seeing strong interest from both buyers and investors. For them, HORIZON CITY means accessibility, appreciation potential and a stable option in a market seeking secure, well-positioned developments.”
In a market that has matured and places a stronger emphasis on predictability, HORIZON CITY stands out through responsible development, self-financing without bank exposure and a community-oriented vision. The project embraces a people-centric philosophy, with design decisions guided by real residential needs: generous natural light, functional architecture, seamless access to infrastructure and integration within a high-potential growth area.
Sustainability is embedded structurally into the project—through the materials used, the efficiency of technical solutions and the focus on long-term cost effectiveness.
HORIZON CITY champions a balanced approach to comfort and quality, within a community shaped by sustainability and a contemporary lifestyle.
For a market driven by safety, long-term value and clarity, HORIZON CITY is not just a residential option—it is a new benchmark of trust in northern Bucharest.

German company Henkel, with over 500 employees in Romania, has opened a new headquarters in Bucharest, marking a fresh chapter in its three-decade presence in the local market. The space blends Henkel’s “Smart Work” concept with Romanian cultural design elements inspired by Constantin Brâncuși and traditional motifs, while a dedicated quiet zone pays tribute to national innovators such as Henri Coandă and Ana Aslan.
The inauguration brought to Bucharest two senior European executives, namely Birgit Rechberger-Krammer, Vice President of Henkel Consumer Brands Europe, and Piotr Ciborowski, Vice President of Henkel Adhesive Technologies Europe, who joined local leaders Andrei Dumitrescu and Andrey Yekimov for the ribbon-cutting ceremony at the Equilibrium 2 office building in Floreasca.
The company highlighted Romania’s strategic importance for both its divisions.
Adhesive Technologies considers the country a key regional market, reinforced by more than EUR 50 million invested in three local production units in Pantelimon, Câmpia Turzii, and Roznov.
Meanwhile, Consumer Brands regards Romania as its second-largest market in Central and Eastern Europe and aims to strengthen its position through sustained brand investment and innovations focused on performance and sustainability.
Henkel currently employs around 500 people in Romania and manages more than 30 brands across its two business divisions.

KMGI, which owns the Petromidia and Vega refineries in Romania, is operating normally, and no decision is currently being made on the privatisation of the holding, the press service of Kazakhstan's national oil and gas company KazMunayGas, which owns KMGI, said on November 25, as cited by Agerpres.
The statement addresses comments about KazMunayGas preparing the sale of 50% of its assets in Europe, with Romania's largest refinery, Petromidia, at the core.
The origin of the comments was a framework document envisaging the possible options and not specific plans, the Kazakh authorities explained.
"Developing a complex plan for the privatisation of various assets is a common practice. The list may include companies from various sectors. It is a standard and long-term process, during which numerous factors are taken into account. As for KMGI, the company is operating normally, achieving production and financial indicators. In this regard, we declare that no decision is currently being made on the privatisation of KMGI," the company's press service said.
The statement comes after the National Privatisation Office of Kazakhstan published on its website a list of assets for which it is possible to 'submit an application', including KMG International N.V., whose potential sale through a two-stage open auction, or electronic auction, or direct targeted sale is planned for 2026-2027.
On November 22, Kazakh media reported that KMG International NV (KMGI), the wholly owned subsidiary of KazMunayGas, would be a key component of the sale, which Kazakhstan plans to carry out in 2026-2027. The Agency for the Protection and Development of Competition confirmed that the two-stage open auction will allow private investors to acquire up to 50% of the holding, which oversees refining and retail operations in Europe.

Honor appointed Kerr Cheng as the new country manager for Romania, placing him at the helm during a “key phase” of the brand’s expansion in Central and Eastern Europe. The company said Romania remains one of its most dynamic and strategically important markets in the region, and Cheng will be responsible for accelerating local growth starting in the fourth quarter of this year.
Kerr Cheng joined Honor in 2024 as country manager for Bulgaria. With more than 18 years of experience in telecommunications and technology, he has previously held senior management roles at Huawei and TCL Mobile, overseeing operations across multiple Western European and Asian markets.
“I am honored to lead Honor Romania and to contribute to the brand’s next stage of growth in a key European market,” Cheng said.
Kerr Cheng succeeds Stanley Yan, who led Honor’s Romanian business for the past three years and played a central role in establishing the brand locally, the company said.
Honor described Romania as a tech-forward market, noting that its flagship Magic series, mid-range Numbers lineup, and foldable devices such as the Magic V3 and V5 have already gained significant traction. The company said one in five Romanians spontaneously associates Honor with smartphones.

The Japanese premium skincare brand Onshindo Osaka officially enters the Romanian market through its exclusive distributor, Pharma Brands, marking a new milestone in its European expansion strategy. Following its successful launch in Spain, the company aims to capitalize on the growing interest of Romanian consumers in premium skincare products with clinically proven efficacy and authentic origins.
Onshindo Osaka’s entry into the local market comes at a time when the J-Beauty segment — Japan’s minimalist skincare philosophy — is gaining global attention as a balanced alternative to the multi-step routines popularized by K-Beauty.
Japanese skincare emphasizes simplicity, concentrated formulas, and measurable results, combining multifunctional ingredients with biotechnological research.
In this context, Onshindo Osaka positions itself as an authentic premium skincare brand that merges Japanese tradition with scientific innovation.
Crafted in Japan Onshindo products combine rare natural ingredients derived from Japanese flora such as Yuzu extract and Tsubaki oil with patented innovations including Hydraskin, Sharohyal, and Glycolift — recognized for their deep hydration and instant lifting effect.
Clinical tests conducted by J.S. Hamilton Laboratories confirmed improvements in skin firmness, density, and elasticity after 28 days of use. All formulas are dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested.
The launch of Onshindo Osaka in Romania is part of Pharma Brands’ strategy to expand its portfolio of international premium brands within the beauty & health segment.
Starting this autumn, the products will be available in major pharmacies and online platforms including Farmacia Tei, Bebe Tei, Dr.Max, Help Net, eMAG, and SpringFarma.
“With this launch, Romania becomes the second European market where the brand is present. The entry of Onshindo Osaka comes at a time when the premium skincare segment is steadily growing. Local consumers are becoming increasingly discerning — we see a clear shift from brand awareness-based purchases to informed decisions, where product origin, research, and clinically proven efficacy truly matter,” said Rubina Celea, Dermato-Cosmetics Manager at Pharma Brands.
According to global trends, premium consumers are seeking products with transparent compositions and scientifically validated performance, moving beyond decisions driven solely by brand fame.
The launch of Onshindo Osaka reinforces Romania’s position as a key market for premium skincare brands in Central and Eastern Europe.
About Onshindo Osaka
Onshindo Osaka is a Japanese premium skincare brand built on a deep commitment to cosmetics, innovation, and cultural heritage. The brand was created with the vision of combining Japan’s rich botanical resources with advanced biotechnology, delivering effective, high-quality products for a wide range of skin types around the world.

All products are crafted exclusively in Japan, preserving the essence and traditions of Japanese beauty rituals while integrating modern scientific expertise.

PPC blue Romania, the electric mobility division of the PPC group, announced the expansion of its national charging infrastructure through the acquisition of the Hermes Flow network, adding 116 new charging points for electric vehicles. Most are located in the Bucharest-Ilfov region, with the rest in 10 other counties.
Once fully integrated, users will have access to a broader network of fast and ultra-fast stations, to be made gradually available in the PPC blue app, the company said.
The newly acquired charging points are located in Bucharest-Ilfov (72) and ten other counties, including sites at six Carrefour stores, 15 Romstal units, and several shopping centers. Of the 116 charging points taken over, 97 are fast and ultra-fast, with powers between 50k and 160kW.
The integration of the Hermes Flow stations into the PPC blue network and app will take place over the coming period, according to the company.
During the transfer, each station will be temporarily unavailable for approximately two to three hours. Until the integration is completed, the chargers will remain visible in the Hermes network before being added to the PPC blue map.
According to Ziarul Financiar, citing data from the Ministry of Finance, Hermes Flow ended 2024 with losses of nearly RON 700,000 on revenues of RON 1.7 million.

Specially designed green areas have been created with the expertise of the University of Agricultural Sciences and the Faculty of Horticulture, Department of Landscape Architecture, Biodiversity, and Ornamental Horticulture.
Construction has already begun, with an expected completion date by the end of 2029.
“This phase also marks the start of the development of the first Hyatt hotel unit in Romania, as well as the beginning of the construction of the first Medicana hospital in Romania,” said Michele Nusco, CEO of Nusco.
Nusco City was launched in the winter of 2020 and delivered its first phase to the community in Q2 2023, with 622 new residences. The second phase of the Nusco City urban regeneration project includes seven buildings with a total of 828 apartments and 1,033 underground parking spaces (double studios, two, three, and four-bedroom apartments, and exclusive duplexes), covering an area of 23,662 square meters.
The first three blocks of this phase are set to be delivered later this year (with 340 units and 447 parking spaces), while the next four buildings (with 488 apartments and 586 parking spaces) are under construction, with a completion deadline in the first half of 2026.
Spanning 23 hectares on the site of the former Pipera platform, Nusco City will accommodate a total of over 4,000 apartments, parks, tiny forests, green areas, and infrastructure, covering approximately 40% of the entire project area, along with educational units, a hospital, a hotel, dedicated commercial spaces, and office zones.

Romania’s Craiova has been named the best Christmas market in Europe 2026 after securing a record number of votes in the annual competition run by European Best Destinations. The results were announced on Thursday evening, November 27, following a week of online voting.
This year, 803,258 travellers from 179 countries have voted and shared their passion on social networks to choose their favourite Christmas markets, according to the official announcement. The Romanian city gathered the most votes and outperformed 19 other European destinations, including major Christmas market hubs such as Paris, Vienna, Bruges, Prague, Zurich, Cologne, Frankfurt, or Riga.
According to the City Hall, Craiova secured 142,687 validated votes from more than 140 countries, finishing over 56,000 votes ahead of the second-place destination. Roughly 55% of all votes cast for the Romanian destination came from outside the country, with the strongest support arriving from the United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Germany, and Spain.
“Craiova has just achieved something remarkable: travellers from around the world have voted it Best Christmas Market in Europe, placing this Romanian city ahead of icons like Strasbourg, Vienna, and Dresden. It’s an extraordinary rise for a destination that now hosts the largest Christmas event in Europe in surface area - more than 280,000 square meters transformed into a luminous, festive world,” European Best Destinations said in its official release.
“This year, the city brings The Nutcracker to life with giant ornaments, oversized sweets, toy sculptures, and millions of sparkling lights that turn the centre into a dazzling open-air stage. The atmosphere feels both grand and warm, crafted with a level of detail that surprises even seasoned Christmas-market travellers. Craiova’s attractions add to the magic: Eastern Europe’s highest-flying Santa sleigh, a glittering ice rink, a panoramic Ferris wheel, and charming hand-painted chalets that give the whole experience a handcrafted, fairy-tale touch.”
Zurich Christmas Markets rank second in the European Best Destinations list, followed by Riga, Wonderland Lisboa, Debrecen, Govone & Asti, Valkenburg, Vienna, Montbeliard, and Paris.
The Craiova Christmas Market opened on November 14 and will welcome visitors until January 4, 2026.

Romania is preparing to select its first-ever national team for the Bocuse d’Or, marking the country’s official debut in the prestigious culinary competition. The Bocuse d’Or Romania National Selection will take place on November 27 in Brașov, where five teams will compete over six hours for a single place in the 2026 Bocuse d’Or Europe event in Marseille.
Only ten European teams will advance from Marseille to the 2027 Bocuse d’Or World Final in Lyon.
Organized by the National Association of Chefs and Pastry Chefs in Tourism (ANBCT) - the only Romanian body recognized by Bocuse d’Or/SIRHA Lyon - the competition brings forward young chefs already distinguished in global contests such as the IKA Culinary Olympics or the Global Chefs Challenge.
Each team includes a professional chef, a commis born after January 2004, and a coach overseeing strategy and coordination with the jury.
The five competing chefs are Vasilică-Marinică Bejenaru, Bogdan Cozma, Emanuel Mocan, Laurențiu Neamțu, and Mihai Ciprian Necula, each supported by a dedicated coach and commis. Their dishes will be judged by an international tasting panel featuring Michelin-awarded chefs, former Bocuse d’Or finalists, and leaders of national culinary teams. The kitchen jury will evaluate technique, organization, hygiene, and compliance with competition rules.
With Romania entering the Bocuse d’Or circuit for the first time, the winning team in Brașov will carry the country’s culinary ambitions to the European stage in 2026 - and potentially to Lyon in 2027 for the world final.

Romania has signed a major contract with France for the acquisition of Mistral portable short-range air defense missile systems. The agreement was concluded on Tuesday, November 25, between Romania’s Ministry of National Defense and France’s Ministry of the Armed Forces and Veterans, through their respective General Directorates for Armaments.
The acquisition is valued at EUR 625.59 million before VAT and includes 231 Mistral Manpad systems, 934 Mistral missiles, training services, training munitions, documentation, a simulator, and logistical support, the ministry said.
The procurement is part of the “European Joint Acquisition of Mistral System,” a program coordinated by France and involving several EU partners, including Romania, Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, and Hungary.
The “Portable Short-Range/Very Short-Range Air Defense Missile Systems – Manpad Mistral” program is included in the Investment Plan for the European Defense Industry, developed under the “Action for the Security of Europe – SAFE” regulation. Romania’s Parliament approved the purchase in June 2022.
The new systems will be delivered to all three branches of the Romanian Armed Forces, as well as to the Special Operations Forces, the ministry stated.
According to Biziday.ro, the missiles have a range of 6-8 kilometers and were designed to strike helicopters and aircraft flying at relatively low altitudes. The systems are equipped with an infrared seeker and advanced image-processing capabilities.

The macroeconomic confidence index compiled by Romania's CFA Society association of analysts, based on a survey among its members, plunged sharply by 7.3 points to 30.2 points, with the current conditions (32.3 points) only marginally superior to the expectations (29.2 points).
The current conditions are at a historic low level, while the analysts have shared similarly gloomy expectations over the past couple of years, only last November, when the presidential elections were annulled, in May before the repeated presidential elections, and in June before the ruling coalition agreed on the first package of reforms.
The analysts expect the national economy to advance by only 0.6% this year (from 0.8% in September) and do not believe the economic growth will exceed 1% in 2026. The forecast for 2025 is consistent with a 3.0% q/q economic contraction in Q4, which is most likely not the case yet, despite visible signs of weakening domestic consumption sentiment and more parsimonious public expenditure.
While CFA's expectations for this year may be rather pessimistic, the magnitude of the fiscal stance next year (3.0% of GDP up from 1.7% of GDP this year) and the negative expectations in the private sector are supporting concerns about subdued economic expansion. However, the EUR 10 billion (2.5% of GDP) of Resilience Facility money, supposed to be absorbed over the past 12 months, should add a bit of optimism to the overall picture, as most of the funds are grants.
The European Commission, in its Autumn Forecast, published this month, agreed Romania's next year's economic growth would not exceed 1% by much (to hit 1.1%) after a subdued 0.7% economic advance in 2025. But this would come with a public deficit of 6.2% of GDP next year - a much better performance compared to the CFA analysts' projection.
When it comes to the public budget execution, the CFA analysts expect the government to deliver on its repeatedly revised target and close this year with an 8.3% of GDP gap (8.6% in September). But the 7% of GDP deficit projected for 2026 indicates slight slippage from the 6%-6.5% target envisaged by the executive.
With not even the basic principles of the 2026 budget planning legislated (the Constitutional Court must clear some tax hikes and fiscal provisions on December 10), the expectations reflect rather the analysts' scepticism backed by problematic past conduct in the area of budgetary policies.
The 6.25% inflation estimated by the CFA analysts over the next 12 months does not necessarily represent an improvement compared to the 7.18% in the last survey conducted in September, since the headline inflation is broadly expected to experience a sharp downward correction in August-December 2026 as the transitory effect of the VAT rate and electricity price hikes fades away.

The Romanian Consulate in New York shared on social media the story of George Pomuț (George Pomutz, born Gheorghe Pomuț), the Romanian-American who facilitated the sale of Alaska to the US. Despite his role in US history, the Romanian is largely unknown today, the Consulate noted.
Pomuț was born in the Hungarian town of Gyula, in an ethnic Romanian family, and fought in the 1848 Revolution. After the defeat, he fled to the United States to escape the death sentence. Once there, he enlisted in the American Civil War as a volunteer for the Union and rose to the rank of brigadier general.
He joined a freemason, was initiated into the Scottish Rite, and frequented the Pythagoras Lodge, according to Atlantico.fr.
"After the war, the American president Andrew Jackson appointed him US Consul General in Saint Petersburg, Russia. His mission was to maintain good relations with the Tsar. In 1867, Russia wanted to sell Alaska because it feared it would lose it anyway to the English, without receiving anything in return," the Consulate said in the post.
Despite US skepticism about the largely barren strip of land, George Pomuț led the secret negotiations. The Romanian, who spoke 8 foreign languages, convinced Russia to sell a territory of 1.7 million km² (7 times the size of Romania) for USD 7.2 million, about 2 cents per acre. Adjusted for inflation, that would be USD 113-160 million today, the same source said.
The sale of Alaska was signed on March 30, 1867, and became the best investment in US history. Shortly after, gold and oil were discovered in the frozen lands. Today, the value of the resources extracted from Alaska exceeds hundreds of billions of dollars annually.
George Pomuț remained in Russia after completing his mandate, being highly respected there. He died in 1882, in Saint Petersburg, poor, after donating much of his fortune, and was buried in the Smolensk cemetery.
In 1944, at the height of World War II, Romanian Americans launched a public fundraising campaign to finance a US Navy ship. The government accepted the donation. The Liberty Ship SS George Pomuț set sail, weathered the fighting, and remained in service until 1970.
To mark George Pomuț and his deeds, the Romanian Scottish Rite presented the United States Congress with an exceptional portrait of George Pomuț, displayed in a 19th-century Florentine frame.

The government announced it selected, on November 27, a president and two vice-presidents for the Agency for Monitoring and Evaluation of Public Enterprises' Performance (AMEPIP). The action was a milestone under the Resilience Facility due November 28, after the expiry of the six-month extra time allowed by the European Commission, with a EUR 330 million financing attached.
The profiles of the two vice presidents have particularly drawn public attention for their past experience, not particularly consistent with the mission of AMEPIP, which, among others, must secure effective management for the state-owned enterprises.
Anisoara Ulceluse-Pîrvan, previously Head of Unit at the Grant Management & Amendments Coordination department within the European Research Council Executive Agency (ERCEA), was appointed as AMEPIP president, Hotnews.ro reported.
For the AMEPIP vice president positions, the selection committee picked Oana Petrescu, formerly a member of the top management of Blue Air airline, a bankruptcy that cost the state budget some EUR 60 million, and Nicolae Bogdan Stănescu, dismissed from the state agency managing state's participations in energy companies (SAPE) in April 2025 upon a report by the Court of Accounts revealing RON 72 million damage during his mandate.
The decisions were signed by prime minister Ilie Bolojan and published in the Official Gazette.

Trade between Romania and Poland continues to grow, with annual bilateral exchanges in goods now valued at more than EUR 12 billion, according to figures presented by the Polish-Romanian Bilateral Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PRBCC). The data was released during a reception in Bucharest marking Poland’s Independence Day and Romania’s National Day.
Polish investments in Romania have reached EUR 1.7 billion, placing Poland among Romania’s key economic partners. Poland is currently the fourth-largest supplier of goods to the Romanian market and the sixth-largest destination for Romanian exports.
Speaking at the event, Artur Tarasewicz, Consul of the Republic of Poland in Bucharest, underscored the significance of the two countries’ national holidays and the longstanding ties between them.
“Our countries are connected by unique relations. It is symbolic that, thanks to the Chamber’s initiative, the business environments together with representatives of the administration from both countries are jointly celebrating the most important national holidays today,” said Tarasewicz.
The PRBCC also highlighted the importance of increasing people-to-people connections. More than 500,000 Polish citizens visit Romania each year, a figure expected to grow following Romania’s entry into the Schengen area and the expansion of direct flights between the two countries.
“The economic collaboration between the two states is constantly evolving, with more and more companies from Poland expanding their operations in Romania, and Romanian companies finding in Poland a dynamic market and reliable partners. There is a growing interest in investments in Romania, and our mission remains to strengthen the economic bridges and facilitate the development of sustainable and profitable projects for both sides,” said Adam Sobieszkoda, Executive Director of the Polish-Romanian Bilateral Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
The PRBCC is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and developing economic and trade relations between Poland and Romania, as well as historical and cultural ties.

AnimaWings, the Romanian airline founded in 2020, has introduced new all-inclusive service packages on both international and domestic flights, marking what the company describes as a first in its onboard offering. The packages, named Priority All Inclusive and Priority All Inclusive Plus, combine baggage, meals, drinks, premium seating, and airport priority services into a single purchase available as an upgrade starting December 10.
On international routes, Priority All Inclusive includes a small 4 kg cabin bag and a larger 8 kg cabin bag, a hot or cold meal, a selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, snacks, premium seat selection, priority check-in and boarding, as well as the option to make certain reservation changes before the trip. These benefits are available as a EUR 35 upgrade per person per flight segment, compared to an estimated EUR 95 if purchased individually.
Priority All Inclusive Plus adds a 23-kg checked bag. The upgrade costs EUR 75 per person per segment, compared with an estimated EUR 135 if bought separately, the air carrier said.
On domestic routes, AnimaWings is launching a tailored version of the package. Priority All Inclusive (Domestic) includes a small 4 kg cabin bag, a larger 8 kg cabin bag, a cold meal, a package of non-alcoholic drinks, premium seat selection, priority check-in and boarding, as well as the option to check in online or at the airport.
“We are introducing for the first time - most likely at a global level - this all-inclusive concept at 10,000 meters altitude, a concept that is already popular and highly sought after in the hotel industry. We created these all-inclusive packages because we see more and more clearly that passengers are looking for integrated solutions and a worry-free experience,” said Marius Pandel, CEO of AnimaWings.
The onboard meals available with the new packages were developed with chef Alex Petricean, who created breakfast, lunch, and dinner options inspired by modern Romanian cuisine. The airline has also partnered with Crama Darabonț to supply onboard wines and sparkling drinks.
The launch comes as AnimaWings continues to expand its network and fleet. The carrier added its fifth Airbus aircraft in September 2025 and plans to reach 18 aircraft within two years, for a fleet valued at over USD 1 billion.
The airline will operate more than 10 new routes this autumn, including flights connecting major Romanian airports with Istanbul, Paris, Munich, Prague, Stockholm, Tel Aviv, and Dubai. New services to London Gatwick and Geneva are scheduled to begin in March 2026.

The Romanian banks boasted in 2025 virtually the same record aggregated net profit as in 2024, namely RON 11.6 billion (EUR 2.3 billion, -0.6% y/y) in January-September and RON 6.2 billion (EUR 828 million, -0.3% y/y) in Q3 alone, according to data published by the National Bank of Romania. The non-performing loan (NPL) ratio has advanced slightly to 2.9% at the end of September from 2.8% at the end of June after reaching the past decade’s low of 2.5% over the previous four quarters.
The profitability ratios at the end of September 2025 improved slightly compared to the previous two quarters, but they lag behind the record values reached in 2023-2024. Thus, the return on equity (ROE) reached 18.4% in January-September 2025, down from 20.2% in the same period of 2024 and 21.3% in the first three months of 2023. Similarly, the return on assets (ROA) eased while remaining robust at 1.73% in 2025, from 1.78% in 2024 and 1.91% in 2023.
The volume of banking assets reached RON 907 billion (EUR 179 billion) at the end of September, after it increased by 7.9% y/y.
The banking assets thus eased to 50% of GDP (latest data available) after they advanced slightly slower than the nominal GDP. Out of the total assets, the volume of loans reached RON 444 billion (EUR 87.5 billion) at the end of September, after they increased by 7.5%.
According to data released earlier by the BNR, the volume of new loans extended in 2025 increased particularly in Q1 (+25.7% y/y to RON 45 billion).
Positive, yet single-digit growth ratios were seen in Q2 and Q3, when just over RON 52 billion was issued in new loans in each of the quarters. However, the largest part of the new loans was refinancing: despite new loans of nearly RON 200 billion extended in 12 months to September 2025, the stock of bank loans advanced by only RON 31 billion.

The union at the Automobile Dacia automobile factory in Mioveni expressed concern about the administration's proposal to reduce production, starting in January 2026. The production is reportedly planned to be reduced to 55 units per hour, from 65 units currently, according to the company's employees speaking for Europa FM, as reported by Economica.net.
In the open letter addressed to General Manager Mihai Bordeanu, the unionists state that "such a measure may have significant social consequences on a large number of employees" and request a reanalysis of the decision "with maximum responsibility and transparency."
The union's demands come ahead of the start of negotiations for a new collective labour agreement, as well as amid concerns that several hundred people will be laid off in 2026 due to an estimated reduction in production.

Furnica Hotel, located near the famous Peleș Castle in the mountain town of Sinaia, and one of the landmark buildings of the Peleș Royal Domain, has been officially put up for sale by the Royal House of Romania.
The hotel, whose initial purpose was to serve as housing for the staff employed by the Royal Family, is now classified as a historic monument of national interest. It comes with a generous plot of land, measuring 5,106 square meters, according to Digi24.
The price for the building, ranked as an AAA-class architectural historic monument, is reportedly EUR 3.7 million.
According to official documents, the Ministry of Culture has already communicated the non-exercise of its right of preemption.
Local authorities, such as the Prahova County Council and Sinaia City Hall, will debate the draft decision regarding the non-exercise of the right of preemption. A vote on the matter will be held on Thursday, November 27, in the Prahova County Council. If the institution is unwilling to invest, the building will go to a private investor.
The building, which was initially constructed as the ‘new stables’ of the Peleș Royal Domain and inaugurated in 1912, later served as housing for the staff employed by the Royal Family. The building had 40 rooms for servants and could also shelter 24 horses. ‘Furnica’ later functioned as a hotel. On the ground floor, there was a restaurant and an event hall.
Over the years, the building gradually fell into decline. The lack of investments, high maintenance costs, and the constraints of historic-monument status eventually led to its closure, many years ago.

Three-quarters of Romanian citizens believe that the national healthcare system offers poor services, and 70% think that it is overstretched, according to the seventh edition of the Ipsos global report on health services, carried out in 30 countries, including Romania.
The study analyzes the population’s perceptions of healthcare systems, major issues in the field, and new trends, such as the use of GLP-1 medications for weight loss.
According to the report, 76% of Romanians think that many citizens cannot afford quality medical care. Also, 6 out of 10 say that the healthcare system will remain the same in the coming years.
The data for 2025 clearly show that Romanians are feeling the pressure of a struggling medical system. The general perception is one of dissatisfaction, fueled by the cost of treatment, bureaucracy, and difficult access to treatment. The main problems identified in Romania’s healthcare system are the cost of treatment (44%), bureaucracy (32%), the delayed access to treatment (29%), insufficient medical staff (26%), and poor quality treatment (25%).
In the opinion of study participants, cancer (53%) and stress (38%) represent the most important public health problems in Romania today. At some distance follow mental health (21%), obesity (20%), or drugs (20%).
Compared to the global average, Romanians are more concerned about cancer and stress, while concern regarding mental health is much lower.
Moreover, 2 out of 10 respondents consider that obesity is a major problem at present, but 6 out of 10 believe it will become a significant challenge in the future. In this context, 30% of respondents have heard of GLP-1-type treatments used for weight loss. The percentage is lower than in Poland (41%), but higher than in Hungary (19%).
“In Romania, the perception of the healthcare system is marked by distrust and frustration. Only a quarter of those interviewed consider that they benefit from quality medical services, and the majority believe the system is overstretched and inaccessible for many,” said Irina Nicolaescu (Aldeșiu), Client Director at Ipsos Romania.
Ipsos interviewed online 23,172 people aged between 16 and 74, from 30 countries, between July 22 and August 8, 2025. The data were weighted according to the demographic profile of each country. The sample included 500 people in Romania.

Altex Romania will develop in the following year the DIY chain Brico Dépôt by securing ownership of the rented stores, upgrading the entire chain, and opening three to five new stores per year after the transition year 2026, Altex founder, main shareholder, and CEO Dan Ostahie announced after his company took over the do-it-yourself chain from Kingfischer, Ziarul Financiar reported.
The EUR 70 million deal was partly financed by a EUR 43 million loan from Raiffeisen Romania, 50% backed under a risk-participation facility by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD)
Kingfisher Group announced in May that it had completed the transaction through which it sold Brico Dépôt Romania, one of the major players of the local DIY and home improvement market, to the electro-IT retailer Altex, controlled by businessman Dan Ostahie. The transaction, signed at the end of last year, was approved by the Competition Council.
Altex has thus taken over a network of about 30 Brico Dépôt stores, ten of which are owned and another 20 are rented. The market leader Dedeman operates 64 stores.
Brico Dépôt, which operates locally through the company Bricostore Romania, ended 2024 with a turnover of RON 1.5 billion (EUR 300 million), down 2% compared to the previous year and a eighth of Dedeman’s turnover. Over the past years, it accumulated RON 1.5 billion of losses.
Last year, Altex achieved business of RON 7.7 billion (EUR 1.5 billion), up 9% and net profit of RON 380 million, being the undisputed leader of Romanian electroIT, with a network of over 135 stores.
Altex has relied on EBRD financing for development in the past.
The company contracted a loan from the EBRD in 2024, worth EUR 26 million, to finance a 55,000 sq m warehouse near Bucharest. In 2020, it borrowed EUR 12 million from the EBRD to expand the logistics centre in Dragomirești Vale, near Bucharest, a project launched in 2018.

Ruling on the draft law on the disbursement of privately-managed pensions, namely 2nd and 3rd Pillars, inked by the Financial Supervisory Authority (ASF), promoted by the Romanian government and approved with amendments by the Parliament, the Constitutional Court (CCR) concluded that the capping the single payment granted before the start of the monthly payments to 30% of the portfolio does not represent a disregard for the right to private property.
However, CCR said that the provision on allowing full disbursement in a single payment to those suffering from oncological diseases, “violates the principle of equal rights, as it establishes discrimination that is not based on objective criteria, but, on the contrary, on the subjective criterion of the disease from which the contributing member of a pension fund suffers.”
The provision rejected by CCR was not part of the law as drafted by ASF or promoted by the government, but was added as an amendment in the Senate by the Liberal (PNL) MP Nicoleta Pauliuc, as reported by Economedia.ro.
Neither the High Court (ICCJ) nor the Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR) objected to the latter issue addressed by CCR, namely the 100% single payment to patients with oncological diseases, but to the first issue seen as breaching the contributors’ right to private property.
Prime minister Ilie Bolojan said that the executive would amend the bill in line with the Constitutional Court’s recommendation and would re-launch it for approval in Parliament.

The City Hall of Oradea, in northwest Romania, has begun installing new smart parking meters as part of its ongoing modernization and digitalization of the municipal parking system. The first batch of devices has already been placed in central areas, and the entire system is expected to become operational by the end of the year.
The municipality said it purchased 30 new-generation parking meters under an investment totaling RON 1.45 million, including VAT. The sum covers hardware, software modules, installation, and commissioning.
The first 15 units, included in Lot 1, are already installed in high-traffic central zones. The remaining 15 units in Lot 2 will be delivered and mounted in the coming period.
Although devices are already visible on the streets, the city notes that the system will only be activated once all 30 meters are installed, ensuring unified integration into the parking management database.
The new equipment introduces a “Pay-by-Plate” system that eliminates the need for drivers to return to their cars to display a ticket. Users will enter their license plate number directly into the machine, and payment will be registered automatically. Parking enforcement agents will verify payments digitally by scanning the plate number.
The smart meters feature multiple payment options, including cash, bank card insertion, and contactless payment, the City Hall said. They are powered by integrated solar panels and built with anti-corrosion, vandal-resistant casings.
Connectivity is ensured through built-in 4G/5G modems that transmit real-time technical and transaction data. The devices include touchscreens or alphanumeric keypads, LCD displays, optional thermal receipt printing, and software capable of remote updates.
Until the new system becomes fully operational, residents are advised to continue using existing payment methods.

Romania’s Superior Council of Magistracy (CSM) issued a negative opinion on the new bill regarding magistrates’ pensions. The move is only the latest development concerning a heated issue that led to tensions between the executive and the judiciary branch.
CSM’s opinion is consultative, and the government led by Ilie Bolojan can still take responsibility for the legislative proposal that cuts the pensions of magistrates by 30%. The same proposal increases retirement age from 48-50 to the standard 65.
The president of the High Court of Cassation and Justice, Lia Savonea, told Digi24 that she will give “a categorical vote against” at the CSM meeting.
In turn, CSM vice-president Claudiu Sandu explained that all courts and prosecutors’ offices voted against the new initiative of the executive, while the minister of justice, present at the CSM meeting, abstained from voting.
“Following consultations with colleagues in the country, both prosecutors and judges recommended issuing this negative opinion on the draft law, so we, being an elected and not appointed body, are somehow indebted to our colleagues to respect their will,” the CSM vice president added, according to Digi24.
He also said that the vote was a “symbolic protest,” meant to draw attention to the legislative inequities brought by the changes.
“In fact, there will be three types of pensioners in the magistracy: the ‘Dragnea era’ pensioners with a pension higher than their salary by 20–25%, the 2023 pensioners with a pension of 100% of the net salary, and the next ones, who will work until 65 and will have such a regulation,” Sandu explained.
Justice minister Radu Marinescu also commented on the CSM opinion, saying that when the status of any professional category is reformed, that category must also be consulted. The government already knew “the opinion of the magistracy” about this reform of special pensions, he said.
Both Marinescu and the CSM vice-president rejected the idea that there is a conflict between the executive and the judiciary.
The new bill on magistrates’ service pensions was published last week, and the CSM had 30 days to issue a consultative opinion. According to the new project, the pension amount for magistrates will be 55% of the calculation base, represented by the average gross indemnities from the last 5 years, but no more than 70% of the last net indemnity. Also, the transition period to the retirement age of 65 will be 15 years, calculated starting January 1, 2026.
Previous talks between the government and representatives of judges and prosecutors in Romania, mediated by the president, failed to reach a consensus.
The first project of the magistrates’ pension reform was declared unconstitutional by the Constitutional Court on October 20, by a 5 to 4 vote. The reason invoked by the five judges was essentially a technicality, namely that the government did not wait for an opinion from the CSM.
That the CSM opinion was issued on the new project is important because Romania faces a November 28 deadline to reform service pensions, including those of magistrates. If the deadline is missed, Romania risks losing EUR 231 million in European financing. To prevent that, the government scheduled a meeting adopt the draft law on Friday, exactly on November 28.

Romania’s general government budget deficit halved y/y to RON 6.4 billion (EUR 1.25 billion) in October, when the tax revenues increased by 15.6% y/y – ten times the 1.5% y/y advance of current expenditures, according to data published by the Finance Ministry. Notably, the payroll narrowed by 4.0% y/y and the expenditures with goods and services by 7.6% y/y after both categories posted 6%-7% y/y advancements in January-September.
The public deficit edged down marginally (-0.5% y/y) to RON 108.9 billion (EUR 21.4 billion) in January-October, while the deficit to GDP ratio eased to 5.72% in the first ten months of this year, compared to 6.22% in the same period of 2024.
The government targets an 8.4% of GDP deficit for the entire year 2025, a moderate improvement from 8.65% in 2024.
Some elements of the monthly execution in October confirm positive results driven by the first package of budgetary measures and the general policy of prioritising public expenditures enforced by the government of prime minister Ilie Bolojan. Besides lower payroll and expenditures with goods and services, the interest paid on public debt rose by a moderate 9.4% y/y in October after it had surged by 50% y/y in January-September and by 63% y/y in Q3.
The improvement recorded in October still needs to be confirmed by further readings, with this indicator remaining key for the success of Romania’s budget consolidation programme.
General government revenues increased by 12.3% y/y to RON 532 billion or 27.9% of GDP in January-October, marking an improvement in the revenues-to-GDP ratio from 26.9% in the same period of 2024. The improvement was only partly driven by 32% larger transfers from the EU budget, as the domestic revenues to GDP ratio also increased from 25.2% to 25.8%.
The overall advance in revenues was 12.3% y/y in October, the same as in January-September, but the tax revenues accelerated to +15.6% y/y from +10.7% y/y in January-September. The net VAT collection surged by 21.6% y/y (helped by a higher VAT rate) in October from +7.7% y/y in January-September.
General government expenditures increased by 9.9% y/y to RON 640 billion or 33.7% of GDP in January-October, compared to a smaller (33.1%) expenditures-to-GDP ratio in the same period of 2024. However, the expenditures without those financed from EU grants increased by only 8.7% y/y, and the ratio to GDP for this adjusted expenditures category increased marginally to 31.0% from 30.8% in 2024.
In October 2025, the public expenditures without those financed from EU grants increased nominally by 1.3% y/y, and the ratio to GDP dropped to 3.3% from 3.6% in the same period of 2024.
Public payroll contracted by 4.0% y/y and expenditures with goods and services by 7.4% y/y in October 2025, after they increased by 6.0% and 7.4% respectively in January-September. The volume of subsidies from the state budget remained moderate, -34% y/y in October after -33% y/y in January-September.
The volume of investments from the national budget and EU transfers contracted by 1.1% y/y to RON 15.8 billion after the buoyant +16.1% y/y surge in January-September. For the entire January-October period, total investments, including other expenditures financed from EU budgets, rose by 13.3% y/y to RON 115 billion (EUR 22.5 billion), or just over 6.0% of GDP, compared to 5.75% in the same period of 2024.
The balance of the Romanian general government, normalised to filter out the transfers from the EU budget and the expenditures linked, contracted by 0.9% y/y to RON 98 billion in January-October, or 5.15% of GDP from 5.62% in the same period of 2024.

Shares of Cris-Tim Family Holding (BVB: CFH) began trading on the Bucharest Stock Exchange on November 26 after an IPO worth RON 454.35 million (EUR 89.3 million) conducted last month.
Cris-Tim is now the largest entrepreneurial company in the food sector on the BVB Main Market. The funds raised from institutional and over 8,000 retail investors will be used in a proportion of over 87% to support Cris-Tim’s development and investment plans.
The money will be divided into two components, namely a capital increase amounting to RON 91.5mn and the repayment by the selling shareholder, Rangeglow Limited, to Cris-Tim Family Holding of RON 306 million, representing the settlement of intra-group loans granted by the company in recent years.
The company’s shares are traded on the BVB under the ticker symbol CFH, and its market capitalization at the offering price of RON 16.5/share is RON 1.33 billion (EUR 261.3 million). CrisTim Family Holding’s free float following the IPO stands at 34.48% of the share capital.
The company’s founding entrepreneurs, Radu and Cristina Timiș, continue to hold 65.49% of the shares through Rangeglow Limited. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the NN Private Pension Fund have become shareholders of the company with stakes of 5.01% and 7.61%, respectively.
Additionally, other local institutional investors, including mandatory and voluntary pension funds as well as open-end investment funds, subscribed to the IPO.
“Cris-Tim Family Holding’s entry onto our market is a victory for a family-owned company and for the capital market, which welcomes Cris-Tim with open arms. Today, we are sending a clear message: the BVB is ready to play its role in financing the entire Romanian economy, not just the traditional players in energy and finance,” said Remus Vulpescu, CEO of the Bucharest Stock Exchange.
Radu Timiș Jr., CEO of Cris-Tim Family Holding, noted that the stock exchange listing has always been an aspiration. “Our new status as a publicly listed company on the Bucharest Stock Exchange’s Main Market brings a greater responsibility toward everyone who chooses our products every day, toward those who placed their trust in us by participating in the IPO, and toward our future shareholders who will join us as the company’s shares begin to trade,” he said.
During the IPO, the retail investors’ tranche registered a record oversubscription for an Initial Public Offering on the local capital market, namely 42 times. Cris-Tim Family Holding and Rangeglow Limited, the majority shareholder, decided to reallocate 5% of the shares available in the Offering from the institutional investors’ tranche to the retail tranche. After the reallocation, the retail tranche was oversubscribed 32 times.

JTI, the global owner of both Winston and Camel, announced on Thursday, November 27, a plan to build a new, state-of-the-art factory in Ștefăneștii de Jos, Ilfov County.
Designed to replace the current Bucharest production site, which is operating under space constraints, the facility is scheduled for completion in 2027. Ground works at the new factory will begin in the coming weeks.
“As a global company, we continuously seek opportunities to optimize our manufacturing footprint and drive sustainable growth,” said Philip Livingston (photo right), JTI Senior Vice President, Global Supply Chain.
JTI’s factory in Romania currently exports around 75% of its production to more than 70 countries worldwide, serving as one of the company’s key manufacturing hubs in Europe.
“Since the beginning of our operations in 1994, we have expanded numerous times. We’re committed to continuously upgrading our production capacity, investing in state-of-the-art equipment, and delivering high-quality products,” said Klaus-Walter Thul (photo left), Factory Lead at JTI Romania.
Over the years, JTI invested in the modernization and expansion of its Romanian operations. In 2012, the company invested EUR 25 million to increase its production capacity, creating over 125 new jobs. In 2021, JTI launched a EUR 60 million investment program to further upgrade its facilities, implemented over three years.
Today, more than 630 people work at JTI’s factory in Bucharest, out of a total of over 1,500 JTI employees across the country.

Two Romanians reportedly forced open an emergency exit and ran after the plane that was preparing to take off for Bucharest from Cologne, southwestern Germany, on Friday, November 21.
The two, aged 28 and 47, were late for boarding, at which point they broke an emergency window and activated a button to open a secured door, so that they could reach the runway, according to the German Federal Police, as reported by Biziday.ro.
They caused a serious incident after they illegally entered the runway to stop the Wizz Air W43262 flight to Bucharest. An airport security officer stopped them and detained them until the police arrived.
A criminal case was reportedly opened in their name.
Unauthorized entry into an active airport represents a serious violation of aviation safety regulations and may involve criminal procedures and large fines.
“The existence of a threat to aviation security was excluded. The two were waving their arms, apparently trying to convince the pilot to stop,” a police spokesperson said, as quoted by the media.
The Wizz Air flight to Bucharest took off with a delay, without the two passengers.

Tășuleasa Social Association, which developed the long-distance trail Via Transilvanica, has developed a modular accommodation unit prototype, the first in what is to become a network of rural hospitality spaces. The network will cover areas along the trail that are isolated and lacking tourist infrastructure or communities with an aging population where there are no other accommodation options.
The association plans to place the first units next year and to reach a network of 100-200 such accommodation modules over the next five to seven years.
The module, which is part of ongoing efforts to develop the tourist infrastructure along the trail, was created from a concept by architect Dorin Ștefan, based on his experience of walking the route. The farmsteads and hayfields along the trail inspired the design of the unit, which aims to integrate contemporary design into the rural landscape.
"The accommodation module is more than a construction. It is a promise. We wanted to show that rural hospitality can be contemporary, sustainable, and deeply rooted in our identity. These constructions are not just places to sleep; they represent bridges between people," Alin Uhlmann Ușeriu, president of the Tășuleasa Social Association, said. "Each module placed in a household means an extra chance for the communities along the route, bringing income and energy where infrastructure was lacking, and Via Transilvanica becomes a road that regenerates, not just connects. In this way, we can contribute directly with respect for nature, for local traditions, for those who live on this path and for generations to come."
This lightweight wooden module, which can accommodate six to eight people, stands on bolted metal foundations and beams to minimize impact on soil in protected areas. Tășuleasa Social said it was working with the team of Creative Engineering to improve the construction's functionality so that it adapts to any form of relief and infrastructure, as well as the needs of hikers and local communities.
"Although it is small in size, the module is designed with the same engineering rigor applied in industries such as automotive or aerospace. The result is a compact, energy-efficient, and easy-to-install space, with a high level of technical performance and architectural quality," Marius Șoflete, co-founder of Creative Engineering, said.
Via Transilvanica stretches between Putna, in northern Romania, and Drobeta Turnu Severin, in the southern part of the country. It spans 1,599 km following the inauguration of the Terra Borza Teutonica extension in Braşov county earlier this year. It opened in 2022, following four years of work that involved local communities and over 10,000 volunteers. It showcases 12 UNESCO World Heritage Sites while crossing ten counties: Suceava, Bistrița-Năsăud, Mureș, Harghita, Sibiu, Brașov, Alba, Hunedoara, Caraș-Severin, and Mehedinți. It is divided into cultural-historical regions: Bucovina, The Highlands (Ținutul de Sus), Terra Siculorum, Terra Saxonum, Terra Dacica, Terra Banatica, Terra Romana, and Terra Borza Teutonica.

A young Romanian has developed a new system that allows people to return entire bags of recyclable packaging at once, replacing the traditional method of inserting bottles one by one into reverse-vending machines. The concept, called IZI, was created by Ștefan Parascanu, who returned to Romania after studying and working in the United Kingdom.
The idea emerged during an informal competition among friends to see who could feed packaging into a return machine the fastest, according to the press release. Parascanu noticed the process was slow and inconvenient, and began exploring whether deposits could instead be collected by simply dropping off a labeled bag.
The solution he developed enables users to scan a QR code with a dedicated app, apply an automatically printed label to their bag, and deposit it into the container. Shortly after drop-off, the deposit value is transferred directly to the user's bank card.
Ştefan Parascanu, a graduate of the University of Manchester with degrees in Business Studies and Economics, previously interned at Barclays' London headquarters before returning home to help with his family's business. He spent months refining the prototype and testing the system with users.
IZI operates through patented technology and a network of smart containers linked to a mobile app, the same source said. The process is quick and removes many of the inconveniences associated with traditional return systems, including queues or rejected items.
"I wanted to create a system I would enjoy using myself: fast, clean, and hassle-free. If recycling becomes as simple as throwing out the trash, people will recycle more. IZI is not just a technical solution, but a shift in mindset," said Ștefan Parascanu, the founder of IZI.
Following the testing phase, IZI is now entering its official launch stage. The app is available for download on the App Store and Google Play, where users can also view the map of container locations. According to the map, the first machines can be found in Iași.

Guests have chosen JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel for life’s most meaningful moments; partners have stood with us as Bucharest evolved; and our associates have delivered day after day with quiet excellence”, declared Ioan Maties, General Manager, JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel.
Since opening its doors in 2000 beside the Palace of Parliament, one of Europe’s most iconic landmarks, JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel set a new benchmark for elevated hospitality in Romania. What began as a symbol of a city ready to redefine its place on the global stage has evolved into a legacy built on consistency, vision, and an unwavering dedication to meaningful guest experiences.
Neal Jones, Chief Operating Officer – Europe and Africa, EMEA, Global Leader - Design Hotels, commented: "I am excited to pass my heartfelt congratulations to the entire team on the 25th anniversary of the JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel. This property is not just a hotel; it is a symbol of hospitality excellence in Romania and a beacon of Marriott’s commitment to creating exceptional experiences for travelers from around the world."
Pankaj Birla, Regional Vice President, Eastern Europe, said: "We are fortunate to be present on the Romanian market with properties like JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, providing our signature hospitality to local and tourists alike. I am particularly fond of Romania, with its wide-ranging cultural heritage and natural attractions Romania has a huge amount to offer travelers. The number of visitors had been steadily growing for years, attracted by the medieval cities, scenic beauty of the mountains, eight UNESCO heritage sites, architectural gems of Bucharest, and of course the famed Transylvania region. We also clearly notice the dynamic pace of the country’s development. Therefore, the potential and opportunities for future growth in this market is of great interest in the region."
The opening of JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel marked a moment of transformation for Romania. Early momentum was strengthened in 2002 by a visit from Mr. Bill Marriott, whose recognition of the hotel’s potential further aligned the property with the JW brand’s defining values and set the tone for its continued evolution.
Over the past 25 years, the hotel has been the setting for more than 29,000 events, including over 2,200 weddings, each contributing to the shared memory that defines its place in the life of the city. Its festive traditions, which welcome more than 1,000 guests each year, have become beloved moments for families in Bucharest and beyond. Across decades, the property has also hosted state delegations, diplomatic events, global leaders, becoming a trusted stage for some of the world`s most significant moments. It has welcomed world class artists and athletes, distinguished creators, and generations of travelers who continue to choose JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel as their home in the city.
The heart of JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel has always been its people. Over the years, countless careers began here, with many associates developing into leaders within the hotel and across Marriott International. Others built lasting careers in Bucharest, shaping guest experiences and setting new standards for excellence through dedication, curiosity, and a spirit of continuous improvement.
Today, JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel proudly employs 391 associates, with women representing 43% of the workforce and 51% of leadership roles — a testament to a culture that champions empowerment, inclusion, and long-term growth.
The hotel remains committed to nurturing talent by investing in structured development, cross-exposure to global best practices, and a culture that empowers individuals to grow with confidence. This reflects the enduring JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel philosophy: service grounded in integrity, leadership rooted in care, and hospitality defined by attentiveness and purpose.
“It is an honor to look back on this legacy and look forward with the promise of further delivering the exceptional experiences that define JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel,” continued Ioan Maties, General Manager, who also celebrated 25 years with Marriott International this year. His journey — from a young leader to steering its future — mirrors the growth, resilience, and heart of the hotel itself.
Over 25 years, JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel has been honored with distinctions that reaffirm its position as one of Eastern Europe’s leading hospitality landmarks. These recognitions complement an extensive portfolio that includes the World Travel Awards, Top Hotel Awards, the first hotel in Romania that received Forbes Travel Guide Recommended Rating. JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel has been honored for service excellence, environmental responsibility, and its ability to consistently elevate guest experiences.
Guided by Marriott International’s Serve 360 – Doing Good in Every Direction framework, JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel continues to extend its impact far beyond its walls. Between 2014 and 2025, the hotel’s dedication to wellness, community engagement, and social responsibility has strengthened its role as a meaningful contributor to Romanian society.
One of the most successful initiatives during this period is the Marriott Cycling Challenge, now in its eleventh edition. Conceived from the outset as a wellness and charitable effort, it has grown into a meaningful annual event that unites hundreds of participants — including partner organizations, Marriott associates, multiple Marriott brands, and Romanian Olympic champions.
Associates contributed more than 6,300 volunteer hours, reflecting a deep and sustained culture of service. JW Marriott Bucharest significantly supported to the community through 108,000 USD in financial contributions and 187,000 USD in in-kind donations, while participating in 184 community initiatives focused on education, environmental protection, and supporting vulnerable groups across Romania.
This enduring commitment reflects the belief that true hospitality uplifts the community as deeply as it delights the guest—creating a lasting legacy that extends beyond the hotel’s doors.

Also participating in this round is existing investor Piton Capital, a leading European marketplace investor known for supporting and scaling high-growth platform businesses across the continent, such as Docplanner, Booksy, and Auto1 Group.
Bonapp and Munch have become Central Europe’s fastest-growing food platforms, with over 5 million app downloads. If you stacked all the meals saved by Munch in containers, the resulting “food tower” would be 900 times taller than the Eiffel Tower. This scale of impact underscores the company's mission to make sustainability tangible for everyday consumers while helping partner businesses turn surplus management into both an economic and environmental advantage.
The new capital will fuel the company’s regional expansion. Bonapp and Munch now operate across Romania (Bonapp), Hungary, Czechia, and Slovakia, partnering with over 6,000 restaurants, bakeries, and major retail chains.
In its next chapter, the company aims to become CEE’s leading food experience platform, expanding into two new verticals:
The company’s impact extends beyond food rescue. Internal data show that most of its users also purchase full-price products from partner businesses - proving the platform’s ability to influence shopping habits and brand loyalty.
Building on this insight, Bonapp and Munch are launching integrated programs with major food chains and retailers to help partners attract, convert, and retain customers more sustainably.
“We’ve realized that Bonapp is not just about saving food; it’s changing how people decide where and what to eat. This investment enables us to scale a model where saving money, saving food, and discovering new experiences all work together,” said Luka Zivkovic, CEO of Bonapp.
“We’re building CEE’s most fun and sustainable food platform!” concluded Grégoire Vigroux, Co-Founder of Bonapp.
The funding will also accelerate the company’s use of AI-driven personalization, automation, and cross-market scalability, improving how users discover relevant dining and grocery offers. By leveraging data and automation, the company aims to make sustainability an everyday, effortless habit.
“We invested in the company because of the strong team and our belief in ambitious CEE entrepreneurs. Munch and Bonapp are well positioned with leading brands and a variety of offerings (Packages, Club and Market). It is the driver of an ecosystem connecting restaurants, retailers, and consumers all around shared values - saving food, time, and money,” said László Czirják, Managing Partner at Interactive Venture Partners.
Together, the founders plan to expand into new markets across Europe in 2026, while strengthening partnerships with retailers, leading food brands and enhancing their mobile app to deliver a better user experience.
About Bonapp
Bonapp is part of a regional sustainability leader born from the 2025 merger of Munch (Hungary) and Bonapp (Romania), two pioneering food-tech startups united by one mission: to fight food waste and make sustainable consumption accessible across Central and Eastern Europe.
Through its mobile app, Bonapp connects users with restaurants, supermarkets, bakeries, hotels, and cafés offering surplus but high-quality products at discounts of up to 80%. The platform helps businesses recover value from unsold food while empowering consumers to save money and reduce their environmental footprint.
In 2025, the company launched Bonapp Club, a corporate well-being and sustainability program that offers employees exclusive dining benefits while supporting local HoReCa businesses. Operating across Hungary, Romania, Czechia, and Slovakia, Bonapp has already helped save millions of meals. www.bonapp.eco

This year’s recognition highlights the work of CSB’s Key Stage 4 and 5 Business and Economics students and teachers, who over the past two years have designed, developed, and implemented the Wellness Wave Index—an innovative, data-driven tool that measures and analyses trends in student well-being. The index provides senior leaders with detailed, term-by-term insights into students’ lived experiences, placing young people not only at the centre of assessment but at the centre of strategic decision-making.
Each term, students present their findings directly to the senior leadership team, offering clear, evidence-based recommendations. Their insights have resulted in targeted enhancements across the Secondary School, including strengthened peer-to-peer tutoring, greater focus on study techniques and time management, and increased parental engagement. Through continuous data collection and analysis, the project has also demonstrated a direct correlation between improved student well-being and stronger academic performance, reinforcing the broader impact of the initiative.
This year’s shortlisted cohort features six current students and two recent alumni whose contributions helped shape the initiative from its early stages. Iris, Arina, and Alexandra in Year 12; Iulia and Andreea in Year 13; and alumni Tudor (now in his first year at Bocconi University) and Tania (now in her first year at the London School of Economics) each played a significant role in the development, refinement, and presentation of the Wellness Wave Index. Their analytical commitment and collaborative ethos were central to CSB’s selection for the award.
Both of CSB’s Tes-shortlisted initiatives originated in the school’s Economics enrichment and competition-preparation work led by Ms Alexandra Dache, Head of Social Sciences and IB Coordinator, where students applied real-world economic methodology—such as constructing and weighting indicators—to meaningful issues in their own community. When exploring how global indicators such as the Human Development Index (HDI) are constructed, students were encouraged to consider how similar frameworks could be applied to areas relevant to their own experience, such as mental health and well-being. From this academic foundation, students initiated the literature review, refined the survey questions, and developed the weighting system that has ensured the index remains reliable and consistent over time.
This is not the first time Cambridge School of Bucharest has been recognised by Tes for its innovative, student-led initiatives. In 2023, KS4 and KS5 Business and Economics students and teachers were shortlisted for Curriculum Initiative of the Year for their Financial Literacy Curriculum, a group project in which students embedded age-appropriate financial literacy across the school’s curriculum. This programme equipped students with essential real-world knowledge, ranging from saving, spending, and borrowing to online spending habits, and demonstrated CSB’s consistent commitment to preparing learners for life beyond the classroom.
Across its history, CSB has developed a strong tradition of school-wide implementations designed to enhance the experiences of students, parents, and teachers alike. These initiatives, built through meaningful student-teacher collaboration, continually foster critical thinking, leadership development, and entrepreneurial skills. This culture of partnership is a defining element of the school’s identity and a key contributor to the successes recognised by international awards such as Tes.
CSB places a strong emphasis on children’s well-being and mental health, offering a holistic educational experience that nurtures both academic progress and social–emotional development. The school provides a safe, supportive environment in which safeguarding and emotional well-being are treated with utmost priority.
The Tes Awards for International Schools build on the longstanding prestige of the Tes Schools Awards in the United Kingdom—widely known as the “Oscars of Education.” The international awards celebrate excellence among schools delivering British and international curricula worldwide. This year, a record 578 entries were submitted, nearly double last year’s total, showcasing innovation, pastoral care, academic achievement, and community impact from schools around the globe.
A panel of international school leaders, educational researchers, and sector specialists oversees the judging, with a focus on creativity, sustainability, long-term impact, and measurable student benefit—areas in which the Wellness Wave Index demonstrated exceptional strength.
CSB’s student-led approach is a noteworthy contribution to Romania’s educational landscape, illustrating how empowering young people to take ownership of their well-being can foster healthier, more responsive school communities. The school’s leadership continues to emphasise the importance of involving students in key decisions, aligning with CSB’s core values of confidence, success, and belonging.
The international visibility of the Tes Awards provides CSB with an opportunity to share its model with other schools committed to advancing student well-being. As mental health remains a leading priority for educators worldwide, the Well-being Wave Index offers a compelling example of how structured student participation can drive meaningful cultural change and help create stronger learning environments. Schools globally are searching for innovative, practical solutions to support young people, and CSB’s model contributes to this broader conversation.
The winners of the Tes Awards for International Schools 2025 will be announced later this year. Regardless of the outcome, Cambridge School of Bucharest views the shortlisting as a significant milestone in its ongoing commitment to innovation, student leadership, and well-being.

The Fabrica de Glucoză area is undergoing one of the fastest urban transformations in Bucharest, strengthening its position as one of the most dynamic residential and investment hubs in the northern part of the city. The modernization of infrastructure, the reconfiguration of the Dimitrie Pompeiu – Fabrica de Glucoză – Pipera axis, and the overall improvement of mobility along the entire northern corridor have entirely reshaped the area’s urban dynamic, creating a modern environment defined by efficiency, connectivity, and premium living standards.
As a result, Fabrica de Glucoză has become an urban node where modern living, intelligent mobility, and proximity to the city’s key business and lifestyle destinations naturally converge, offering residents a high level of comfort and immediate access to essential amenities.
“Fabrica de Glucoză has evolved from an emerging district into a new cosmopolitan lifestyle hub, where modern living, mobility, and the major business center in the north of the Capital function in perfect synergy. We are witnessing one of the most spectacular urban transformations in Bucharest,” states Vlad Musteață, CEO of North Bucharest Investments, highlighting the rapid maturation of the area and the shift in buyer profiles, who are now seeking a complete lifestyle, not just an apartment.
NBI is directly involved in the residential development dynamics of the area, with a portfolio of projects that have significantly contributed to shaping the district’s contemporary identity. BHB Avenue introduces a true premium lifestyle to the new downtown of the Capital, offering high-end finishes, wellness facilities, and a strategic location on one of the most vibrant arteries in the north. PRIMA Vista stands out through its strong focus on mobility and sustainability, integrating a record number of fast-charging stations for electric vehicles. Quartier du Nord has established itself through a discreet luxury approach, positioned at the heart of the corporate district, with a well-defined community and immediate access to major business hubs. Yacht Kid elevates the concept of living to an “urban resort” level, with generous terraces and integrated facilities that create a complete environment centered on comfort and modern lifestyle.
From an investment perspective, Fabrica de Glucoză has become one of the most dynamic and high-performing areas in Bucharest. Property prices have risen by an average of approximately 34% over the past two years, driven by strong demand and ongoing infrastructure investments. Rental yields remain above those of other districts due to the proximity to the city’s largest office hub and the sustained interest from expats and professionals in tech, corporate, and related industries. The fast absorption rate and high resale liquidity further confirm the strong long-term potential of the area.
For end buyers, the advantages are clear: time efficiency, excellent connectivity, modernized infrastructure, young and active communities, and easy access to all essential urban amenities. For investors, the northern part of the Capital offers stable yields, consistent property value growth, strong demand, and a residential market that continuously demonstrates both maturity and long-term appeal.
Overall, Fabrica de Glucoză has moved beyond being merely a promising district—today, it stands as a confirmed hotspot for lifestyle and investment. And North Bucharest Investments is at the core of this evolution, playing a decisive role in shaping one of the most relevant and vibrant urban poles of contemporary Bucharest.

Orange Romania announced the launch of the 5G+ technology in the Bucharest subway, becoming the first operator in the country to reach mobile data speeds of up to 1 Gbps in the underground network. The company has begun activating the technology in several stations and plans wider deployment in the coming weeks.
The first 5G+ pilot installations were launched in November in the Preciziei and Păcii stations. The network has since been activated in Piața Victoriei 1 and 2, and this week in Aviatorilor.
Next, 5G+ will be extended by the end of December to additional stations across all subway lines, including Piața Romană, Universitate, Piața Unirii 1 and 2, Tineretului, Aurel Vlaicu, Pipera, and Constantin Brâncoveanu.
The company said that it plans to complete 5G+ coverage across the entire Bucharest subway system by the end of 2026.
According to the company, the rollout covers both stations and tunnels to maintain continuous signal availability during transit. The new upgrade includes new equipment that also improves connectivity for 4G users.
Orange also said that 5G and 5G+ technologies have lower energy consumption per unit of data traffic than previous generations and allow reduced power use during low-demand periods, such as nighttime in the subway.
The operator currently holds the largest 5G/5G+ spectrum investment in the country, totaling EUR 265 million for a 25-year license. The latest Netograf report by telecom regulator ANCOM shows Orange provides the fastest mobile and fixed internet speeds in Romania.

Over 136,000 non-EU citizens held residence permits for employment in Romania at the end of August this year, most of them coming from Nepal, Sri Lanka, Turkey, Moldova, and India, and two out of three immigrants live in Bucharest, Ilfov, Constanța, Timiș, and Cluj, according to a study conducted by the Economic and Social Council.
After the pandemic, Romanian companies turned to Southeast Asia to compensate for the labor shortage. The relative accessibility of Romania’s visa and work-permit processes, compared to Western European countries, quickly made it a preferred initial or medium-term entry destination, the report showed.
The majority of third-country nationals who have obtained residence permits for employment purposes in Romania in recent years come predominantly from Nepal (45,802 people), Sri Lanka (22,559), Turkey (18,150), Moldova (15,714), India (12,995), Bangladesh (8,449), China (8,272), Syria (7,222), Egypt (5,471) and Pakistan (4,522), according to official data provided by the General Inspectorate for Immigration (IGI) and valid as of August 31, 2025, the report stated, as cited by HotNews.
The composition of residence permits by purpose shows that employment is the main determining factor, constituting 64% of the permits issued. Family reunification represents 16%, followed by studies with 9%, permanent residence with 9%, international protection with 2%, and other purposes with 1%.
Approximately 93% of migrants are 18 to 64, which indicates a high potential for labor-market participation and may be interpreted as a possible motivational factor for economic migration. However, this range also includes students as well as Ukrainian citizens benefiting from temporary protection.
Regarding gender, the migrant population is predominantly male, with approximately 75% men and 25% women, making it one of the most masculinized migrant populations in Europe.
“This imbalance aligns with traditional labor-migration patterns, especially in sectors such as construction, manufacturing, and agriculture, which employ more male workers. However, female migrants are increasingly present in sectors such as hospitality, healthcare, and domestic work, where the demand for female workers remains high, but occupies a significant share in skilled positions,” the study noted.
Most hiring of non-EU immigrants occurs in construction. In this field, the number increased from 9,853 employees in 2019 to 41,518 employees in 2025, representing an increase of approximately 321%.
The manufacturing industry advanced from 10,815 to 38,700 employees, equivalent to a 258% increase, while commerce rose from 10,159 to 25,965 employees, a 155% expansion.
In the services area, hospitality increased from 6,066 to 28,559, a 371% rise, and administrative and support services from 2,255 to 18,669, a spectacular increase of 728%, the largest among all analyzed sectors. “Non-EU workers have become a structural element of the sector’s functioning, filling gaps left by the high mobility of local staff,” the report stated.
There are, however, structural issues in the non-EU immigrant hiring process. The work permit is issued nominally for a single employer, which limits professional mobility and the workers’ ability to react to abuse or unfavorable conditions.
A second relevant factor is the debt associated with the recruitment process. Illegitimate fees charged by recruitment agencies and travel costs can create economic dependence on the employer, increasing the risk of abuse and exploitation.
A third essential factor is the language barrier and lack of information. A recent study shows that workers primarily from Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Turkey are employed in low-skilled positions, having reduced mobility and reduced legal protection.
Finally, hate speech directed at migrants and refugees has visibly expanded in recent months.

Chinese electronic giant Xiaomi has opened its first physical store in Romania as part of a broader strategy to strengthen its presence on the local market, with additional retail expansion planned for 2026. The new Xiaomi Store, located in Bucharest’s ParkLake Shopping Center, is the company’s first directly operated retail space in the country and showcases nearly 40 product categories.
The Bucharest store offers the full spectrum of Xiaomi’s ecosystem, including smartphones, tablets, wearables, televisions, AIoT home devices, electric scooters, and other mobility solutions.
Customers can explore flagship smartphone models plus robot vacuums, air purifiers, smart home accessories, and monitors, with assistance provided by a team of six consultants.
“Opening our first own store in Romania marks an important moment in Xiaomi’s evolution on the local market. […] Romania is one of the most dynamic markets in Central and Eastern Europe, and our investment in physical retail reflects our long-term commitment to this region and to the Xiaomi community,” said Linshan Zheng, Country Manager, Xiaomi Romania.
Xiaomi currently ranks second in the Romanian smartphone market, holding an 18% share in the third quarter of 2025, according to data from Canalys and Omdia quoted by the company.
The new store in the ParkLake mall is part of Xiaomi’s global retail expansion plan. The company said it is already assessing opportunities for additional locations in Romania and is considering opening new physical stores in 2026, depending on market conditions and consumer demand.
The company also plans to broaden its product offering next year by introducing large home appliances such as washer-dryers, refrigerators, and air conditioners, further expanding its footprint on the Romanian market.
Xiaomi Corporation was founded in April 2010 and has been listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange since July 9, 2018 (1810.HK).
Xiaomi is one of the world’s leading smartphone companies. Its products are available in more than 100 countries and regions worldwide.

An 11-story building is currently being built next to the graves in Bucharest’s famous Bellu Cemetery, and the project, authorized by the District 4 City Hall in 2023, has sparked controversy in the context of local elections for general mayor.
District 4 City Hall, led by Daniel Băluță, currently a candidate for the position of general mayor backed by the Social Democratic Party, issued the authorization for the new building. Sections of it will extend over the cemetery itself, according to Oficiul de Știri.
The construction works, planned for a period of 24 months, began at the start of this year. The project was made public by Iliescu Cătălin Lucian, president of the Commission for Culture and Religious Affairs in the Bucharest General Council. According to the councilor, the project was approved based on a Detailed Urban Plan voted in 2023, derived from a 2009 General Urban Plan.
The project is “legally questionable, violating any Christian morality,” according to Iliescu, who also highlighted that the building was initially supposed to house offices. Now, it is registered as a residential unit. Moreover, the land is located in the protection zone of a historical monument, which, according to Iliescu, would have required additional approvals.
In response, District 4 City Hall noted that the piece of land originally belonged to the Ministry of Agriculture, but that ownership rights were transferred to a commercial company in 2006. Almost 10 years later, in 2016, several constructions occupying the land were demolished. As such, the City Hall pointed out, there were never any graves on the parcel.
Finally, the local authority noted that the construction in question is being carried out based on a Zonal Urban Plan approved by the Bucharest General Council in 2009, and that refusing to issue an authorization for it would have constituted an abuse of office, according to Libertatea.
Daniel Băluță’s opponents in the elections for Bucharest's general mayor seized the moment to attack one of the leading candidates, according to the polls.
“I see that Mr. Băluță, in District 4, issued an authorization, and a housing complex is being built literally over the graves in Bellu Cemetery. [It is] something horrifying, odious from an urbanistic point of view: a long, narrow rectangular plot that penetrates among the graves, literally,” said former transport minister Cătălin Drulă, also running for Bucharest mayor.
Bellu Cemetery is a landmark on the cultural map of Bucharest. Writers, musicians, actors, academics, or people who over time have changed the course of Romania from positions of power have found their eternal rest here. Their names are written on simple wooden crosses or on true works of art with impressive details.

Sales of the Dacia Sandero model were the highest in Europe in October, although the volume was slightly lower than a year ago. The Romanian model managed to surpass its main rivals, the Clio and the T-Roc, according to Profit.ro.
The Sandero is mainly built in Morocco, where Renault-Dacia operates two factories in Tangier and Casablanca. A third production site is in Mioveni, Romania, but most of the supply comes from the Moroccan plants, which have become key players in the European car industry, according to Morocco World News.
Meanwhile, the best-selling made-in-Romania model, Ford Puma (13th place), produced at Craiova by Ford Otocar, maintained in October its upward trend seen over the previous months, with a volume of 12,300 units - but it failed to reach the EU Top 10 by sales, being surpassed by the Citroen C3. The same happened with Dacia Duster, ranked one place lower and with an almost similar volume.
For comparison, 20,500 automobiles were sold in October under the Sandero badge, some 2,000 units over the VW T-Roc, which came in second, while the lead over Clio was over 3,000 units, as shown by Data Force statistics.
Romanian automobile production dropped by 2.7% y/y to 453,955 units in the first ten months of 2025, according to data from the Romanian Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACAROM).

The Institute for the Investigation of the Crimes of Communism and the Memory of Romanian Exile (IICCMER) has issued a public appeal to president Nicuşor Dan and prime minister Ilie Bolojan to demonstrate “firmness in decision-making” in order to counter what it describes as an “increasingly insidious phenomenon of pro-totalitarian nostalgia,” G4media.ro reported. The institute argued that the trend “fundamentally threatens democratic values and institutions.”
Daniel Şandru, executive president of IICCMER, stated that “the crimes of the communist regime, the repressions of the Securitate, the restrictions on fundamental freedoms, hunger, cold and suffering are, unfortunately, trivialised today and replaced by campaigns to rewrite history and whitewash the totalitarian past.”
His comments were included in the public appeal addressed to the head of state and the prime minister.
The appeal noted that Romania will soon mark the thirty-sixth anniversary of the end of the communist regime, described as “an illegitimate and criminal regime, a totalitarian system that, through its atrocities, left deep marks on our collective conscience.” Şandru wrote that Romanians had a “moral obligation to do everything in our power so that that terrible history would never be repeated,” but said the country had “significantly deviated from this fundamental duty.”
He stressed that this moment should not be viewed as one of “capitulation” or “resignation” but rather of acknowledging “a painful but necessary truth.”
According to Şandru, Romanian society is “passively witnessing a furious, systematically coordinated assault, intended to rewrite and distort the historical reality of the recent past.” He warned that this situation represents “an existential danger for the memory and identity of Romanian society.”
The institute reiterated that the crimes of the communist period, including the actions of the Securitate and restrictions on basic freedoms, along with hunger, cold, and suffering, are increasingly being trivialised and replaced by efforts to rehabilitate the totalitarian past.

As Romania moves closer to implementing the EU Pay Transparency Directive, local employers are preparing for one of the most consequential shifts in workplace regulation in over a decade. The directive, set for transposition by June 2026, introduces strict new rules on salary disclosure, pay reporting, and equal-pay verification, aiming to close persistent gender gaps and bring greater fairness to compensation practices across the EU. But beyond compliance, the new rules are poised to reshape how Romanian companies recruit, manage performance, promote staff, and communicate internally.
The upcoming changes will require employers to reveal salary ranges to candidates before interviews, abandon confidentiality clauses regarding pay, and justify any significant gender-based differences through objective, documented criteria. Companies with over 250 employees will also be the first to publish gender pay gap indicators in 2027, using 2026 data. If unexplained gaps of more than 5% persist, companies will have to conduct a joint pay assessment with employee representatives, an obligation that could expose deeper structural issues and force accelerated corrective action.
To understand how these requirements will affect both the legal and HR landscapes, Romania Insider spoke with Lorena Tănase, Partner at ONV LAW (left), and Alina Sîrbu, Partner at Arthur Hunt (right).
Lorena Tănase explains that the directive will compel companies to revisit employment contracts, remuneration frameworks, and internal policies, warning that non-compliant employers may face fines, legal claims, or exclusion from procurement procedures.
Alina Sîrbu highlights the cultural shift ahead, noting that transparency will bring consistency to hiring and promotion decisions, reduce discretionary practices, and push companies, especially those lacking job architectures or reliable data, to invest in more mature HR systems.
While many employers see the directive as a compliance hurdle, both experts agree that early adopters can transform transparency into a competitive advantage: strengthening trust, improving employer branding, and aligning Romanian workplaces with broader European expectations.
Read the full Q&A interview below:
Could you briefly explain the main objectives of the EU Pay Transparency Directive and when companies in Romania can expect it to take effect?
Lorena Tănase, Partner ONV LAW: The EU Directive 2023/970 aims to strengthen the principle of “equal pay for equal work or work of equal value” by increasing pay transparency and introducing effective enforcement mechanisms. Its goal is to eliminate gender-based pay gaps and ensure that companies clearly communicate salary criteria, provide employees and candidates with relevant information, and correct unjustified pay differences. Member States must transpose the Directive by 7 June 2026, and the first reports for large companies will be required in 2027, covering 2026 data.
What are the key legal changes the directive introduces for employers, particularly regarding pay reporting and transparency requirements?
Lorena Tănase: The Directive introduces several new obligations for employers to promote transparency and prevent pay discrimination. Companies will need to adjust their policies and processes to comply with these rules. Key changes include:
What type of pay information will companies be required to share with employees, job candidates, or authorities, and how often?
Lorena Tănase: Companies are required to be transparent about salaries and provide relevant information to candidates, employees, and authorities.
Candidates must be informed of the starting salary or the pay range for a position before interviews, ensuring transparency from the outset of the recruitment process.
Employers shall make easily accessible to their workers the criteria that are used to determine workers’ pay, pay levels and pay progression. Those criteria shall be objective and gender neutral.
Workers shall have the right to information on their individual pay level and the average pay levels, broken down by sex, for categories of workers performing the same work as them or work of equal value to theirs. Also, companies are prohibited from requesting candidates’ salary history, and confidentiality clauses regarding employees’ pay will no longer be permitted.
In turn, companies will be required to report gender pay gap indicators, such as differences in average salaries, and the distribution of employees across pay bands.
How will the directive affect confidentiality clauses, employment contracts, and overall pay policies within companies?
Lorena Tănase: The Directive brings important changes that require companies to review and adapt their internal rules and employment agreements to ensure pay transparency. General confidentiality clauses regarding salaries, that prevent employees from discussing their salaries will need to be removed. Employment contracts and internal policies should clearly document pay structures and ensure that any differences are objectively and gender-neutrally justified.
Pay policies must be gender-neutral and capable of explaining differences for equivalent work. Recruitment processes also need to be adapted, clearly stating pay ranges from the initial recruitment phases and ensuring that interviews avoid questions about candidates’ previous salaries.
What penalties or reputational risks could companies face if they fail to comply with the new rules?
Lorena Tănase: Failing to comply with the Directive can have both legal and reputational consequences, making it essential for companies to prepare in advance. Legally, employers may face fines, exclusion from public procurement procedures, corrective measures, and potential lawsuits in which employees seek damages if pay differences are not objectively justified. The burden of proof is on the employer to show that no gender-based discrimination has occurred. Moreover, it may become necessary for companies to obtain a “pay transparency compliant” label to remain eligible within contracting chains, as contractual partners—particularly larger organizations—may require collaboration only with entities that meet such standards, similar to ESG-related requirements.
From a reputational perspective, disclosed pay gaps can harm an employer’s brand, affect staff retention, and strain relationships with employee representatives or unions. Unprepared companies may also incur additional costs for internal audits, system changes, salaries adjustments and potential litigation once the law comes into effect.
How will the requirement to disclose pay ranges or criteria affect recruitment, salary negotiations, and promotion processes?
Alina Sîrbu, Partner Arthur Hunt: As Romania prepares to implement the EU Pay Transparency Directive by June 2026, companies are entering a new era of openness about pay. What began as a compliance obligation may quickly become a differentiator, separating organizations that use transparency as a tool for trust, fairness, and brand strength from those who struggle to adapt and face reputational, legal, and cultural risks.
One of the most visible shifts will be in the hiring process. Employers will have to disclose pay levels or ranges before interviews, and they will no longer be allowed to ask candidates about salary history. Job ads must use gender-neutral language and reflect objective, transparent pay criteria.
This means fewer ad-hoc negotiations and more structured offers within predefined bands. Recruiters and managers will need clear talking points and consistent internal approvals. Promotions will also need to follow documented, transparent rules. Subjective or discretionary decisions will no longer pass unnoticed.
For well-prepared employers, this is an opportunity to professionalize pay frameworks, improve internal equity, and position themselves as trustworthy, modern organizations. But for those without a clear job architecture or data accuracy, compliance could prove costly and stressful.
What should companies know about the new gender pay gap reporting and pay audit obligations, and how should they prepare?
Alina Sîrbu: Companies with over 250 employees will be the first to report gender pay gaps by June 2027, followed by smaller employers in later years. If an unexplained pay gap of more than 5% persists, they will be required to carry out a joint pay assessment with employee representatives or take corrective measures within six months.
Beyond numbers, this process demands maturity in job evaluation, pay structures, and data collection. Employees will gain the right to request information about their pay level and the average pay for equal or equal-value work, while pay-secrecy clauses will be prohibited.
This new level of visibility can reveal long-hidden imbalances, creating pressure, but also the possibility to correct them and showcase progress. Transparent reporting can thus become a strategic reputation tool rather than just a compliance burden.
How can foreign or multinational employers align their global pay structures with Romania’s local transparency requirements?
Alina Sîrbu: For most multinational employers, Romania’s pay transparency rules will be relatively easy to implement. Many already have structured salary bands, job grading systems, and objective pay criteria built into their global remuneration policies. These provide a solid foundation for compliance.
Since the directive applies across the entire European Union, large international groups will roll out similar transparency measures in all their European entities, creating consistency and shared governance.
Still, success will depend on local adaptation, ensuring that pay ranges, communication materials, and reporting processes meet Romanian legal and cultural specifics. In this sense, pay transparency is less a disruption for global companies and more an opportunity to showcase fairness, strengthen employer branding, and reinforce European alignment.
What role should HR play in communicating these changes internally and fostering a culture of transparency?
Alina Sîrbu: Pay transparency will reshape not just pay systems, but also culture, communication, and company reputation. HR will lead this change, but it cannot and should not do it alone.
Management needs to grasp the full impact, allocate proper resources, and stay actively involved to ensure credibility and alignment. Without leadership backing, transparency risks becoming a technical exercise instead of a genuine shift toward fairness and trust.
In organizations that already value openness and dialogue, the transition will be smoother. Where trust is low, the directive will expose deeper cultural challenges.
Ultimately, pay transparency is not just an HR reform, it’s a leadership test and a mirror of how authentic a company’s culture truly is. So, HR should be at the centre of this quest, but leadership must stand beside it.
Beyond compliance, how can companies leverage pay transparency to drive trust, engagement, and stronger employer branding?
Alina Sîrbu: While many organizations view the directive as an administrative burden, progressive employers see it as an opportunity for differentiation. Those who communicate a clear pay philosophy, show how decisions are made, and actively close pay gaps will stand out in a crowded talent market.
Transparency builds trust, engagement, and retention, especially among younger generations. It can also elevate employer branding by signalling integrity, inclusion, and professionalism. In a market where top talent increasingly values fairness and purpose, transparency can become a true strategic advantage.
In your view, what long-term impact will this directive have on Romania’s labor market and on how foreign companies operate here?
Alina Sîrbu: Over time, pay transparency is likely to narrow gender gaps, standardize compensation practices, and reduce salary disparities driven by negotiation skills rather than performance. The Romanian labour market may become more mobile and merit-based, rewarding companies that invest in robust HR systems and equitable pay design.
However, the transition won’t be smooth for everyone. Companies unprepared for transparency, lacking data quality, job structures, or communication capability, may face legal exposure, internal tension, and higher compliance costs.
In contrast, those who act early will not only meet the letter of the law but also gain the trust of their people and the respect of the market. Pay transparency, far from being a bureaucratic exercise, could well become the new hallmark of credible, competitive employers in Romania.
Lorena Tănase: In the long term, the Directive is likely to bring profound internal changes in Romanian companies, fundamentally altering how remuneration is structured, evaluated, and discussed. It will drive the transformationof HR processes and encourage companies to adopt clearer, more objective pay frameworks. Transparency will gradually reduce the traditional reluctance to discuss salaries and hence will create a workplace culture that supports fairness and helps close persistent gender pay gaps
The Directive will create both challenges and opportunities. On one hand, multinationals with mature compliance systems will adapt more easily, aligning practices with global standards of pay equity and reporting. On the other hand, the administrative burden will increase, especially for employers managing cross-border teams or complex bonus structures. In the long run, however, companies that embrace transparency are likely to gain reputational advantages, attract and retain talent more effectively, and contribute to a more equitable and predictable labor market environment in Romania and all over the EU as well.

Lot 3 Pietroasele–Buzău of Romania's A7 highway, also known as the Moldova highway, was inaugurated on Thursday, November 27. The newly inaugurated segment is 13.9 km long.
The A7 connects Romania’s historic regions of Muntenia, the southern part of the country, with Moldova, the eastern part.
“We are opening another 13 km of the Moldova Motorway to traffic, the Pietroasele–Buzău Lot, so we will be able to drive from Bucharest to Focșani over a distance of 210 km. After discussions with the builder, we aim to open up to the vicinity of Adjud by the end of this year,” said transport minister Ciprian Șerban.
Present at the inauguration, former transport minister Sorin Grindeanu said that the segment could have been opened last year.
“We could have had this inauguration one year earlier if the National Council for Solving Complaints and all the other institutions had done their job better, but I want to congratulate the builders; they finished ahead of schedule,” he said, adding that the segment is extremely important for the city of Buzău, according to Agerpres.
The works, carried out by the association Nurol Inșaat Ve Ticaret Anonim Șirketi - Makyol Inșaat Sanayi Turizm Ve Ticaret Anonim Șirketi, began on March 1, 2024, with an execution period of 20 months. The value of the contract was over RON 1 billion, without VAT, financed through the National Recovery and Resilience Plan.
Former prime minister Marcel Ciolacu, currently running for president of the Buzău County Council, also took part in the event organized before the opening of the segment. The official, who has faced accusations of letting Romania’s budget deficit balloon to 9.3% of GDP during his tenure, argued that the money went into infrastructure investments.
“We invested RON 120 billion. We all know the comments, both good and bad, mostly bad. To those who criticized me, I answer with only one thing: let them come and see this highway, let them drive on it, especially since winter is coming, and in winter, driving on the highway is the safest,” emphasized Marcel Ciolacu.
However, independent analyses show that around a third of the money went to investments. The rest were directed to wage increases in the public sector or subsidies.
Lot 1 of the Moldova Highway opened in December 2024. Overall, the A7 highway is around 320 km long.

This week, the EDIT association launched the mural “Write your story through sport,” dedicated to Olympic and world swimming champion David Popovici.
The work, created by the Sweet Damage Crew on an area of approximately 400 sqm on Simion Bărnuțiu Street in Timișoara, is part of the Outline Streetart urban revitalization project and promotes sport, discipline, and the motivation necessary for performance, as well as confidence in one’s own potential.
David Popovici is one of the most important personalities in world sport and one of the strongest voices of Romanian sport, the authors of the mural said.
“I encourage all children and young people in Romania to discover sport as a source of energy and to follow their dream with confidence in any field they choose,” David Popovici said.
The mural seeks to amplify this message and bring to the forefront the role of sport in the development of new generations. Visible from a heavily trafficked area, this project aims to inspire passers-by through the portrait of one of the most appreciated Romanian athletes of the moment, recognized worldwide, the initiators stated.
Created by the artist RECIS, a member of the Sweet Damage Crew, together with three assistants, the mural took shape over 15 days of intense work.
“The work aims to pay tribute to David’s sporting achievements, capturing the emotion and intensity of the moment in an artistic manner that offers the viewer a visual antithesis by overlapping the central subject in different postures,” RECIS said.
Outline Streetart is a project of the EDIT Association that transforms urban spaces into spaces for dialogue, visual education, and motivation. The mural was approved by the Timișoara City Hall.

Some dinners are eaten. Others are remembered.
At Corinthia Grand Hotel du Boulevard, the past few months have unfolded like a quiet culinary opera. One by one, Europe’s most celebrated chefs arrived, took over the kitchen of Boulevard 73 and left behind more than menus; they left stories.
Now, on December 4, the curtain falls.
The Michelin Dinner Series reaches its final performance with a guest who arrives not only with a star, but with a philosophy.
For the closing night, Executive Chef Pedro Mendes welcomes Chef Rodrigo Castelo, holder of both a Michelin Star and a Green Star, a rare combination that honours not only excellence, but conscience. Sustainability here is not a trend, but a belief system: ingredients rooted in place, flavours built with respect and a kitchen that thinks as much as it cooks.
This final dinner is not about spectacle. It’s about meaning.
If earlier evenings introduced technique, theatre and tasting menus with bravado, this last chapter promises something quieter and deeper. A sense of return. A feeling that the series is not ending, merely exhaling.
“This is a guest who cooks with purpose,” says Mendes. “And for a final night, purpose is exactly what you want.”
Since the first evening of the series, the dining room of Boulevard 73 has been many things: a passport, a backstage pass, a private gallery of flavour.
Each chef arrived with their own language. Their own grammar of taste. Their own accent in sauce and spice. And for one or two nights only, Bucharest learned to speak it fluently.
There were menus that travelled coastlines and others that wandered mountain paths. Plates that whispered of heritage and those that leaned unapologetically into modernity. There were evenings where silence followed the final course, the best compliment a kitchen can receive.
For a city growing rapidly into its fine-dining identity, the series has been more than a rotation of stars. It has been a statement: Bucharest is not waiting its turn. It has arrived.
Boulevard 73, itself a restored ballroom, feels particularly alive in December.
Light settles differently in winter. Chandeliers glow with intent. Tablecloths seem to listen closer. There is a hush before the first course that only appears on evenings like this, when a room understands something important is about to happen.
On December 4, that atmosphere will be at its purest.
This is not simply the final event of a series. It is the moment when all of it becomes memory.
And, for the fortunate few with a seat, a story they will tell long after dessert is gone.
There may still be a handful of places left.
Not many.
But enough, perhaps, for those who decide that some evenings should not be postponed.
Because not every night earns the right to be a finale.
And not every city gets to host one.
On December 4, Corinthia Bucharest doesn’t just serve dinner.
It serves the last chapter of a story worth tasting.

Prosecutors and police in Romania conducted 17 searches on Tuesday, November 25, in a case concerning falsified documents for persons from Russia, Ukraine, the Republic of Moldova, and other states of the former USSR. The searches mainly took place in Suceava county, on the border with Ukraine, but also in Bucharest.
Some of the targeted individuals are those who housed foreign citizens in order to obtain identity documents for them, the final goal being to obtain a passport. Public officials were involved in the process, according to ProTV.
These officials, employed at a population records service and a city hall, helped foreign citizens in the process of obtaining Romanian citizenship by registering them as living at a certain address, even if the building in question was abandoned or unsuitable for residence. Other properties were listed without the consent of the owners.
Investigations will continue in the case of 18 individuals who obtained identity cards and passports after submitting falsified citizenship certificates, according to the prosecutors.
Earlier this year, prosecutors discovered that thousands of Russian and Ukrainian citizens live in tax havens under fraudulently obtained Romanian identities. Specifically, between 2023–2024, over 1,700 individuals born in the Russian Federation, Ukraine, the Republic of Moldova, or other former USSR member states fictitiously established their domicile within the jurisdiction of a population records service in Suceava County.
On the list, judicial sources say, there are more than 100 Russian and Ukrainian multi-millionaires, all born in the Russian Federation.
Romanian investigators have requested the assistance of Interpol to locate the individuals and confiscate their documents.
Alongside the criminal investigation, the authorities in Bucharest have also begun cancelling the identity cards and passports in question. Some documents have been annulled administratively, while others are currently pending in courts.

Romania's Ministry of Finance published for debate the draft emergency ordinance (OUG) on the second budget rectification of this year on the evening of November 27. According to the document, the general government budget deficit will remain at 8.4% of GDP, Hotnews.ro reported.
Central government budget revenues for 2025 are revised downwards by RON 2.1 billion, while planned expenditures are cut by over RON 2.7 billion.
"The largest part of the rectification focuses on covering amounts in the health sector. We are basically covering medical services, medicines, sick leave of over RON 2 billion," minister of finance Alexandru Nazare explained in the press conference, where he also explained the budget execution for the first ten months of the year.
The minister also said that the rectification will allocate amounts for payments of arrears to the Ministry of Transport.
The public deficit edged down marginally (-0.5% y/y) to RON 108.9 billion (EUR 21.4 billion) in January-October, while the deficit to GDP ratio eased to 5.72% in the first ten months of this year compared to 6.22% in the same period of 2024. The government targets an 8.4% of GDP deficit for the entire year 2025, a moderate improvement from 8.65% in 2024.

Participation in cultural education activities continues to be limited, with the main barriers being difficult access, insufficient knowledge, and cost, the recently released Cultural Consumption Barometer 2024 shows.
The report showed that many Romanians still associate culture with entertainment rather than with personal development or furthering their knowledge. The need for relaxation dominates in cultural consumption, at the expense of educational experiences.
The survey showed that, in 2024, 67% of the respondents and their children did not attend any cultural education activities, despite high awareness of their importance.
Among the respondents who took part in cultural education events, 78% reported that the main benefit was learning, having new information and notions about art and culture. Moreover, for 70%, the wish to learn more led to greater involvement in various cultural initiatives, and for 42%, cultural education led to an increase in their children's school performance.
Although the potential public, namely people who do not reject cultural events but cannot access them, is numerous, cultural infrastructure remains a major issue, especially in rural areas, where 44% of Romanians live. The survey showed that the lack of attendance is connected to infrequent cultural offerings, such as festivals and fairs, or to specific infrastructure and educational barriers, as the consumption of classical music.
According to the survey, interest in heritage sites remains high, with 66% of respondents reporting having visited historical monuments and archaeological sites at least once a year, and 42% reporting visiting museums, exhibitions, or art galleries.
At the same time, 38% saw a film at the cinema at least once in 2024, while 23% went to the theater at least once, similar to 2023 levels.
The survey also revealed that attendance at events with a community element, such as celebrations, local events, religious sermons or churchgoing, and meeting relatives and friends, continues to attract a significant share of respondents.
The report showed that those aged 18 to 35 are increasing their cultural consumption, especially in the digital environment, while those aged 36 to 50 are attending fewer cultural events, due to intense work demands, leading to a break in the cultural connection between generations, the authors of the report note.
Furthermore, the report points to the internet's growing role locally in cultural consumption and to two main groups: elite cultural consumption and mass, entertainment-driven consumption.
When it comes to cultural consumption in the private sphere, the survey notes increases in music consumption and online media, and decreases in reading, including audiobooks, watching films and entertainment on cable TV, and TV programs in general.
Types of audience and activities
The report outlines four types of audience, depending on the frequency of their participation in cultural events: the stable/ regular public, who access the cultural product at least once a week/month; the potential public, who access a product at least once every six months; the occasional public – at least once a year; and the non-public, who doesn’t access the product or have the interest to.
At the same time, it outlines distinct behaviors depending on the type of activity: activities with a cultural component, entertainment and relaxation activities, activities with a community dimension, and activities that entail an active lifestyle. The results of the study confirm a cultural change, highlighting the increase in the importance of friendship and ways of spending leisure time. Participation in community activities attracts the highest percentage of regular public: meetings with families and friends (79%) and going to church (50%).
When it comes to entertainment and relaxation activities, the stable public reports the highest percentages for going to the mall (59%) and the restaurant (45%). In what concerns activities that involve an active lifestyle, walks in the park have a stable public of 61% of the respondents, unlike practicing a sport, which has only 34%.
In the non-public sphere, data show a strong orientation of the public towards accessible cultural consumption forms. A total of 88% of the respondents said they listen to music at least once a week, and 84% watch news or other current affairs shows on TV with the same frequency.
Regarding reading habits, 26% said they read books, 7% said they listened to audiobooks, and 45% said they read newspapers or magazines, either in print or online, weekly.
A total of 89% of the survey respondents said they accessed social networks at least once in the past year, 71% said they used the internet for professional purposes, and 59% said they watched films or other programs online.
The study, conducted by the National Institute for Cultural Research and Training (INCFC), surveyed 1,064 people. It has a maximum error margin of +/-3.1%, and a confidence level of 95%.

During the Executive Committee meeting on Thursday, November 20, the Romanian Gymnastics Federation decided to dissolve the national teams after a series of public accusations of harassment.
The accusations are not new. At the end of October, upon returning to the country after the World Gymnastics Championships in Jakarta, 23-year-old athlete Denisa Golgotă revealed that she had filed a complaint for physical and psychological harassment and that the Federation had ignored it. The subject of the complaint was allegedly fellow athlete Sabrina Voinea.
In response, Sabrina Voinea's mother and trainer, Camelia, announced that she will sue Golgotă, according to Euronews Romania.
Subsequently, former gymnasts, under the protection of anonymity, accused Sabrina Voinea’s mother of physical and verbal violence. Footage of Camelia Voinea verbally abusing her daughter was made public soon after.
All these episodes and accusations were discussed during the Romanian Gymnastics Federation Executive Committee's 7-hour meeting last week.
The dissolution means that each athlete will train at the club to which they belong. There will no longer be centralized training with the entire team, with athletes brought to a national center. The measure was also taken in 2019 as a result of below-expectations results at the Artistic Gymnastics World Championships.
“It was a very difficult Executive Committee, with a lot of pressure on all fronts, including the recent events that occurred in the public space, because we really had to settle things at the Executive Committee level,” said Ioan Suciu, president of the Federation, according to as.ro.
The video with Camelia and Sabrina Voinea was also sent to the Disciplinary Committee, the official noted.
“I did not like what I saw. We will respect the decision of the Disciplinary Committee,” he added, saying that any individual sanction will have to follow the investigation.
Mihai Covaliu, president of the Romanian Olympic and Sports Committee, also weighed in.
“I want to emphasize that we do not tolerate such behavior regarding the coach-athlete relationship. We will never tolerate this kind of behavior! No coach should behave this way with an athlete, especially if that athlete is his child!” he said.

Romanian prosecutors conducted house searches in 12 locations in Bucharest and two in Târgu Mureș on Wednesday, November 26, in a case targeting former employees of bankrupt insurer Euroins. Specifically, the searches targeted 10 individuals who held executive management positions within Euroins, as well as the headquarters of legal entities controlled by the Bulgarian shareholders of the company, according to the press release.
The investigations focus on activity carried out in the period 2017–2023. At that time, Euroins’ Bulgarian owners, together with individuals in the Romanian management and affiliated entities, allegedly “created, conceived, applied, and coordinated various mechanisms to defraud the company’s financial resources.”
The ultimate goal of this endeavor was “the decapitalization of the company by drastically reducing the cash and assets available to it,” according to the investigators. To do so, the perpetrators systematically undervalued and refused payment to policyholders.
The ASF control carried out for the period 2000–2021 revealed that a former director of the Claims Directorate within Euroins unjustifiably rejected over 5,800 claims files, with obligations exceeding RON 60 million, without a thorough analysis, investigators said.
Moreover, the company did not report the actual number of lawsuits to ASF, hiding 36,707 files, of which 20,268 involved enforcement proceedings and 16,439 were compensation claims. This policy generated colossal penalties (0.2% per day of delay) and significantly diminished the company’s assets through enforcement costs.
ASF controls between 2020 and 2023 revealed that Euroins had a capital deficit of RON 2.19 billion, which led to the withdrawal of the operating license and the finding of the company’s insolvency in 2023. ASF also found that at the date of opening the bankruptcy procedure, the company's reserve (covering declared but unpaid claims) should have been RON 1.7 billion, but was only RON 683 million.
Faced with the imminence of bankruptcy, the company shareholders allegedly implemented a mechanism to outsource financial resources worth RON 1.5 billion, directly harming policyholders and creditors. These operations, carried out with ‘affiliated entities under the direct or indirect control of the same associates,’ allegedly caused serious damage to Euroins in the total amount of over RON 75 million, according to investigators.
In reply to the investigation, Eurohold Bulgaria AD (Eurohold) and Euroins Insurance Group AD (EIG) said that home searches against former Euroins Romania employees coincide with the filing of a second international arbitration action against the Romanian state at the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) in Washington. The case, according to the press release, is about the unlawful revocation of Euroins’ license, allegedly organized by a group of senior officials within the ASF.
“All speculative forecasts for huge damages and costs that Euroins Romania would have to pay in insurance claims proved to be manipulative, which further confirms the fact that ЕIRO had been solvent and well capitalized as of the date when its license was revoked,” the company representatives said.
According to the former owners of Euroins, Romanian regulators “have now engaged law enforcement agencies to search the drawers and wardrobes containing personal belongings of regular Romanian citizens who have worked as employees at Euroins Romania."

The City Hall of Sinaia, a popular mountain town roughly 120 km north of Bucharest, announced that a new attraction, the alpine coaster on Pârtia Nouă, will officially open on December 1. The installation, located in the ski area near the Sinaia Gondola, features what the authorities say is the longest track of its kind in Eastern Europe, stretching for more than two kilometers through the forest.
According to the City Hall, the track has been fully installed and tested, and the technical teams have completed all safety checks.
“It is an accessible and enjoyable attraction for children, parents, and young people, a project we are adding to the city’s offering for those who visit us and for those who live here,” said Vlad Oprea, the mayor of Sinaia.
The new facility features over two kilometers of rail, 65 sled vehicles equipped with lights, brakes and safety belts, as well as an underground garage, transport carts, access gates, a disembarkation platform, fibre-optic connectivity along the entire route, and surveillance cameras.
The alpine coaster has been designed for year-round use, depending on weather conditions.

Romania’s National Forest Administration, or Romsilva, announced that it is putting over 16,000 Christmas trees up for sale over the winter in a press release published on Thursday, November 27.
The trees can be purchased directly from the offices of the forestry districts. Prices range between RON 17 (EUR 3.3) for a spruce up to 1.3 meters in height and RON 39 (EUR 7.6) for a fir between 2 and 3 meters in height.
Of the over 16,000 trees, 13,462 are firs, and another 2,953 are spruce or other conifer species. Most of the Christmas trees come from specialized plantations, from Romsilva’s forest nurseries, with a smaller number harvested from naturally regenerated forest areas with excessive density, which require thinning operations.
Christmas trees are sold at the offices of forestry districts in mountain and hill areas, where there are forest nurseries producing conifer seedlings and coniferous forests. If Romsilva units sell Christmas trees in markets or other designated locations, transportation, handling, and storage costs will be included additionally in the final sale price.
According to Romsilva, the directorates and forestry districts will prioritize public requests through direct sales, and sales to companies will only be done within the limits of the surplus. Requests for trees taller than 3 meters are considered special orders, and the price will be approved by the management committee of the forestry directorate.
Romsilva manages 3.13 million hectares of forests owned by the state and provides forestry services for approximately one million hectares of forests in other forms of ownership. It also handles 22 national and natural parks, with a cumulative area of over 850,000 hectares, as well as 12 state horse farms.

Swisspod, a Swiss-American company founded in 2019 by Romanian Denis Tudor and Cyril Dénéréaz, announced that it set a new speed record in hyperloop transportation during a live demonstration in Pueblo, Colorado, last week. Its full-scale test system reached 65 mph (102 kph), the highest speed achieved to date by any active hyperloop developer worldwide.
The test, conducted on what is now the world’s largest hyperloop track, was witnessed by more than 150 attendees, including US Senator Michael Bennet, Pueblo Mayor Heather Graham, and Federal Railroad Administration Deputy Administrator Drew Feeley.
The event marked Swisspod’s second US Hyperloop Day and included the unveiling of the Aerys 1, the company’s first hyperloop capsule model.
The Colorado test site, located at Pueblo Plex, currently spans 1,700 feet (520 meters) and is planned to expand into a one-mile closed-loop system covering 43 acres, an area comparable to 25 football fields or 12,200 parked cars, the company said.
Further on, Swisspod is planning continued speed increases, expanded subsystem tests, and longer-distance track development as part of its roadmap.
“We are demonstrating real hyperloop technology, operating at the largest test track in the world. We had a great test, and in the coming weeks, we’ll increase power, push the system harder, and advance at a pace this industry has never seen. It’s how real transportation systems are developed,” said Swisspod CEO, Denis Tudor.
“Our system is fundamentally different from everything else in the market. The infrastructure is passive, while all the core technology is inside the capsule. At the heart of it is our patented propulsion system, engineered to deliver high efficiency at very high speeds, unmatched in the market,” he added.
This recent milestone follows the successful closing of Swisspod’s USD 13 million seed round, accelerating its expansion in the United States and driving forward continued testing and infrastructure completion toward the commercialization of its hyperloop technology.
The company has also achieved notable results internationally, including a world record last year for the longest hyperloop mission: an 11.8-kilometer trial on its Swiss research facility, the first operational infinite hyperloop test track. Scaled to full size, that mission equates to 141.6 kilometers with an equivalent top speed of 488.2 kph.
Hyperloop is a new, high-speed, fully-electric mode of transportation in which autonomous capsules travel inside low-pressure tubes, levitating and moving at near-sonic speeds with zero direct CO2 emissions. Designed for both passengers and freight, the technology aims to offer a fast, sustainable alternative to existing transport modes.
Swisspod, founded in 2019 by SpaceX Hyperloop Competition award winners Denis Tudor and Cyril Dénéréaz, positions its system as a practical and cost-effective path toward large-scale hyperloop deployment.

The European Commission (EC) will reportedly give Romania four more months to appoint permanent management under competitive procedures at 48 state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in the energy sector, after the Romanian government agreed to double the fine paid by the country and the penalties charged to those responsible (ministers) if the milestone set under the Resilience Plan with a EUR 227 million financing attached is not met by March 31, 2026, according to Profit.ro.
This is one of the milestones with a total of some EUR 869 million financing attached (including EUR 841 million of grants and EUR 55 million of loans), supposed to be met by November 28, after they were already deferred by six months by the European Commission.
The other two main milestones, also likely to fail, are amending the special pensions legislation (EUR 231 million financing) and appointing a management to the agency supervising the state-owned enterprises (SOE, EUR 330 million). It remains unclear whether the Commission would be ready to demonstrate the same flexibility for other key milestones due November 28.
According to a regulatory act prepared by the government for this purpose and analysed by Profit.ro, currently about 48 central public enterprises have exceeded the maximum 12-month provisional term, as a result of the successive appointment of provisional administrators.
The lack of management bodies may lead to their dissolution or liquidation. According to the Companies Law no. 31/1990, republished, with subsequent amendments and completions, companies that no longer have statutory bodies or whose statutory bodies can no longer meet, may be dissolved, at the request of any interested person or of the National Trade Register Office.
As a result, the government has drafted a regulatory act that allows ministries that are conducting selection procedures for administrator positions to complete these procedures by March 31, 2026, and appoint new, provisional administrators.
AMEPIP will also be obliged to order checks of the respective selection procedures, to identify the guilty persons and to apply fines, which range between RON 10,000 and 200,000, respectively 15% to 30% of the remuneration of the head of the tutelary public authority or administrators.

MEPs adopted a non-legislative report by 483 votes to 92, with 86 abstentions. The document expresses concern about the physical and mental health risks facing minors online and increases political pressure on the European Commission and the Council of the EU to act, although it does not create binding legal obligations.
The Parliament said minors require stronger protection against manipulative design strategies that can increase addiction and reduce their ability to concentrate or interpret online content appropriately.
MEPs said a harmonised EU age limit of sixteen would help parents manage children’s digital activity and ensure age-appropriate participation. Under the proposal, minors aged between thirteen and sixteen would be allowed online access only with parental consent.
MEPs also welcomed the Commission’s work on an EU age-verification application and the development of a European digital identity wallet. They said verification methods must be accurate and preserve the privacy of minors, stressing that such tools cannot substitute platforms’ responsibility to ensure online services are safe and suitable for minors by design.

State-controlled Hidroelectrica (BVB: H2O) allegedly supplied electricity for years to politically connected companies and religious institutions without issuing invoices or collecting payments, according to public data analysed by investigative platform Recorder. The supplies were made under valid contracts, but billing did not occur, the media revealed.
The situation was uncovered during a routine inspection by the Court of Accounts.
Hidroelectrica rejected allegations of political bias and stated that invoicing delays were caused in some instances by technical constraints, while disconnections for certain customers were prohibited during the pandemic, Ziarul Financiar reported. The company also acknowledged the possibility of fraud related to supply operations, noting that such cases had been reported by Hidroelectrica itself to prosecutors for investigation.
According to the Court of Accounts, between January 2018 and June 2022, Hidroelectrica supplied electricity to twenty legal entities without invoicing the value of the energy delivered, despite receiving monthly consumption statements for each supply point.
One of the main beneficiaries was reportedly a company controlled by Alin Udriște, vice president of PNL Mehedinți and a protégé of former energy minister Virgil Popescu, who served from 2020 to 2023. The company had already entered insolvency in January 2018, when it signed an electricity supply contract with Hidroelectrica, a situation that should have been legally impossible under insolvency rules.

Roughly 84% of Romanians say that the pace of the state’s digitalization is slow or very slow, according to an Edge Institute & AtlasIntel study presented at the Digital Governance Summit 2025, which took place on Tuesday, November 25, at the presidential palace in Bucharest.
The survey aims to capture the way citizens relate to digital transformation: what works, what frustrates them, what expectations they have, and what pace they consider acceptable for modernizing the state.
Data show that for most Romanians, digitalization means, first and foremost, reducing bureaucracy and eliminating trips between institutions, through administrative processes that can be resolved entirely online.
At the top of their expectations is the ability to submit applications without going to a counter (68.7%), the automatic circulation of documents between institutions (61.4%), and the interoperability of databases, which would eliminate the need for certificates (57.1%). Around 76.4% of Romanians have used the electronic services of public institutions in the past year.
Romanians associate the state’s digitalization with practical and easy-to-use solutions: electronic signatures for citizens and companies (43%), modern presentation websites for ministries (36.2%), and, to a lesser extent, the presence of institutions on social networks (17.2%). Among the most frequently mentioned benefits are reduced bureaucracy (65.3%), time savings (50.5%), and faster access to information and services (48.7%).
At the same time, respondents point out possible negative effects, such as the impact on vulnerable people (29.2%), the risk of certain jobs disappearing (28.3%), and the increasing dependence on technology (28.1%). Even in the context of perceived disadvantages, nearly 73% of Romanians consider digitalization a good or very good thing.
When it comes to evaluating the current level of digitalization, however, 65% of respondents consider that public institutions are poorly digitalized, while areas such as internet quality and the digitalization of private companies receive significantly better evaluations. Moreover, 84% of Romanians say that the pace of the state’s digitalization is slow or very slow.
Three-quarters of Romanians (75.8%) say that Romania needs major changes. For 77% of Romanians, corruption is the biggest concern, ahead of the general state of the education and health systems, high prices, or the war in Ukraine. The context suggests that digitalization, through transparency and automated processes, is perceived as a direct solution against this phenomenon.
“The data show that expectations are clear: Romanians want efficient public services, without unnecessary bureaucracy, and a state that respects people’s time. Digitalization is only the tool; the real stake is trust,” said Robert Berza, Executive Director of Edge Institute, at the event.

The Romanian Parliament approved the National Defense Strategy on Wednesday, November 26, with 314 votes in favor, 43 against, and three abstentions, following a joint session attended by president Nicușor Dan. The document will guide national security policy for the 2025-2030 period.
During the parliamentary debate, Ana Maria Gavrilă, leader of the opposition party POT, announced that her party’s lawmakers would vote against the strategy. In turn, UDMR deputy Ödön Szabó criticized the document as “a very well-packaged Christmas tree” for addressing too many themes, News.ro reported.
Meanwhile, Social Democrat (PSD) deputy Mihai Fifor argued that the strategy accurately identifies Romania’s risks and vulnerabilities, while outlining opportunities that could strengthen national security. Liberal (PNL) senator Nicoleta Pauliuc said, in turn, that the strategy must be backed by clear public policies, budgets, and timelines that are communicated transparently to citizens.
Presenting the strategy before lawmakers, president Nicușor Dan described it as the result of broad consultations involving institutions, organizations, and members of the public. He said the document places citizens at the center of national security, noting the need to rebuild trust between the state and society and to close the gap between public expectations and administrative performance.
The strategy’s core concept, which Dan called “solidary independence,” combines the assertion of national identity with respect for international commitments.
The president highlighted major global shifts since the previous strategy, including the erosion of the rules-based international order, the ongoing war in Ukraine, the spread of conflicts worldwide, rapid technological change, intensified disinformation campaigns, and growing pressure on critical infrastructure. He warned of hybrid threats from Russia and instability risks in Romania’s neighborhood, from Moldova and Ukraine to the Western Balkans and the South Caucasus.
“Regarding internal risks and vulnerabilities, I would emphasize the limited capacity of the public administration on multiple levels, and I will elaborate on this when discussing solutions, as well as on corruption, large-scale tax evasion, the quality of education, critical thinking and school dropout, the demographic decline, and the fragmentation of state policies in the area of technology,” Nicușor Dan said.
“We also have a relatively low level of research, development, and innovation, an area that is becoming increasingly important in global competition. And regarding society, I believe an important risk is the relatively low level of civic activity and civic engagement, which is a significant issue,” he added.
At the same time, he stressed several opportunities, such as Romania’s strategic partnerships, especially with the United States; its role in NATO and the EU; prospects for revitalizing the national defense industry; and the potential of the Port of Constanța, the Danube, and the Black Sea region.
Dan further said Romania can strengthen its position as a regional connector and leverage its competitive workforce and dynamic private tech sector. He also highlighted the potential contribution of the Romanian diaspora.
The strategy also outlines objectives across defense, foreign policy, and domestic governance. These include strengthening defense capabilities, deepening cooperation with partners, supporting Moldova and Ukraine, advancing stability in the Western Balkans, and promoting EU enlargement. The Black Sea will remain a priority area for both security and economic development.
Internally, the president said, the document prioritizes anti-corruption efforts, improved coordination between state institutions, and reforms to accelerate corruption-related court cases.
“Explicitly, the Strategy provides for the involvement of intelligence services in collecting data on corruption, without crossing the line between the intelligence system and the justice system, as well as for correcting the legislative and administrative mechanisms that delay the adjudication of corruption cases and create the public perception that nothing is happening in this area,” the Dan stated.
Economic stability, the revival of the defense industry, stronger economic diplomacy, and the attraction of foreign investment are also key goals. The president noted that Romania’s expected accession to the OECD next year will open additional opportunities.
In the end, Nicușor Dan noted the need to involve citizens and civil society in implementing the strategy and pledged support for ensuring that the commitments outlined translate into concrete results.
“Romania does not lack strategies or implementation plans,” the president told lawmakers. “What matters is whether we can put them into practice - and in me, you have a partner.”

Romania aims, through its new National Defense Strategy, to become the second military power on the eastern flank and a defense provider in the Black Sea region, according to defense minister Ionuț Moșteanu.
The new National Defense Strategy is a paradigm shift, the minister said.
“A fundamentally different point of view is that we are no longer a consumer of defense; we are a provider, or we want to become a provider of defense in the Black Sea region, and the ambition that the president sets in this Strategy is for us to be the second military power on the eastern flank, after Poland,” Moșteanu argued, cited by Agerpres.
To achieve this goal, Romania must continue to invest in defense and maintain close ties with its allies. Moreover, the government must explain to the population the importance of defense, since “in the defense of a country and the sovereignty of a people, everyone must contribute.”
To this end, the Defense Ministry is currently promoting a bill to introduce a four-month voluntary military service. The new bill may face difficulties, as a survey from earlier this year showed that fewer than three out of four Romanians have a good opinion about the introduction of voluntary military service, a ratio slightly lower compared to a decade ago.
“The population must accept that we must increase defense spending in the coming years. It is a decision we made together with our allies at the end of June. We made this decision understanding the new imperatives and new security challenges, understanding that for years we did not invest as much as we should have in our own defense,” the minister said.
Romanian president Nicusor Dan underlined a similar goal earlier this month, saying that “Romania meets all the conditions to become an innovation and production hub in the defense industry in Southeast Europe.”

The government is preparing a major overhaul of state-owned companies, deputy prime minister Oana Gheorghiu announced on Monday, November 24, unveiling plans for a unified registry and initial reforms targeting 10 key enterprises. According to her, Romania currently has 1,502 state-owned companies, including 230 at central level and 1,272 under local authorities.
Among central entities, 83 companies account for the largest historical losses, totaling an estimated RON 14 billion, Oana Gheorghiu said, as quoted by News.ro.
“Today is an important day for me, a day in which I had the opportunity to meet with the ministers and the National Committee for the Reform of State-Owned Companies, a committee that has existed for some time but has now been reactivated. Within this committee, I presented the architecture of the reform of state-owned companies as we envision it,” she said.
The official further stated that the effort aims to eliminate interim management across all state companies by March 31, 2026, as required under Romania’s EU recovery plan, and to begin restructuring at least three companies by August 31, 2026.
A new “sectoral map” will guide decisions on restructuring and on the state’s future presence in various economic areas.
According to the deputy prime minister, Romania currently has 1,502 state-owned companies.
“It is a very large number - 230 of them are central companies, and 1,272 are at the local level, under local authorities. Among the central companies, 83 concentrate the biggest losses, and we are talking about historical losses amounting to approximately RON 14 billion,” she said.
Further on, Gheorghiu added that the reform architecture strengthens the role of the National Committee and of AMEPIP, the agency overseeing state-company governance, alongside the Ministry of Finance, which will assess fiscal risks.
The government also plans to create a unified registry of state-owned companies, updated monthly with financial data. Gheorghiu said this tool will give authorities a real-time overview of state assets and complement existing monitoring mechanisms.
The reform process will start with a pilot group of 10 companies, namely four in the energy sector and six in transport. The list is expected to be finalized this week, the deputy prime minister said.

The government of Romania will be empowered to establish, ex officio or upon request, by Government Decision, an extended surveillance regime over local companies strongly affected by economic sanctions imposed by other states, according to the legislative project prepared by the government, given that the situation of the assets held by the Russian giant Lukoil in Romania is uncertain following the sanctions imposed by the US, announced Economica.net, citing the draft bill.
Separately, energy minister Bogdan Ivan stated previously that there are three companies interested in the Lukoil refinery in Ploiesti and the Lukoil gas station network in Romania, with the authorities now waiting for the transaction through which the Russian group Lukoil would sell these assets to be completed.
However, he implied that temporarily taking over the Lukoil assets is an option also considered by the authorities.

More than 80% of the electricity production capacity of the new nuclear reactors in the works in Romania could power a Black Sea AI Gigafactory project, according to a plan laid out by the government.
Romania has already secured financing and partners to develop units 3 and 4 at the Cernavodă nuclear power plant, with a total installed capacity of 1,400 MW, as well as a small modular reactor (SMR) power plant of 462 MW at Doicești. About 1,500 MW of this newly installed power could go towards 100,000 AI accelerators housed by an AI Gigafactory.
“The project provides for the installation of over 100,000 AI accelerators in two distinct locations: Cernavodă (Phase I) and Doicești (Phase II), both selected for their strategic advantages in terms of energy, digital infrastructure, and access to international connectivity. The project will be powered by an energy mix of up to a maximum of 1,500 MW, positioning Romania as a strategic hub for high-performance computing, environmentally friendly, with carbon-free nuclear energy,” according to a memorandum approved on Thursday, November 27, and cited by Profit.ro.
The Black Sea AI Gigafactory project has been announced before, but the government has now designated the Energy Ministry as the main coordinator of the project. The ministry will plan for the locations of the Gigafactory, identify energy sources, connections to the grid, and handle the relationship with the European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU), a public-private initiative which seeks to make Europe a world leader in supercomputing, and the European Commission.
In addition, the Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of Finance are mandated as coordinators in charge of preparing, negotiating, and involving relevant actors from the public, private, academic, and research sectors for the Black Sea AI Gigafactory project.
Romania is competing with other member states to host such centres, with the stake being to obtain partial financing for the project.
“It is estimated that the national Black Sea AI Gigafactory project will require an investment of EUR 4–5 billion and that it will be operational at the end of 2028. Public authorities, both at the EU level and at the national level, can finance up to 35% of total CAPEX (capital expenditures), with most of the financing needing to be mobilized through private partners/investors, national development banks (in Romania’s case, the Investment and Development Bank) and institutional investors,” the government said in the memorandum.
To develop the project, the executive also sent an official letter to the World Bank asking for technical assistance. This request has already been discussed with representatives of the institution during the annual meetings of the World Bank Group in October.
According to the International Atomic Energy Agency, major tech companies have turned to nuclear energy to power data and AI centers. A similar trend can be observed in other industries seeking clean 24/7 power and heat, such as petrochemicals and cryptocurrency.
Romania’s nuclear sector, represented by Nuclearelectrica (BVB: SNN), has a long tradition of operating safely and is backed by the state. Nuclear power accounts for over 17% of the country’s energy consumption at the moment.
Romania also collaborates with the United States for the development of the Doicești SMR plant, based on the Intergovernmental Agreement on cooperation.

The transaction between E.ON and the Hungarian company MVM regarding the assets of the former company in Romania was blocked by the Supreme Council for National Defence, former energy minister Sebastian Burduja announced on his Facebook page, cited by Bursa.ro.
The decision was reportedly made at the November 24 meeting, but was not communicated by the Presidential Administration.
“When I was minister of energy, I said clearly and unequivocally: blocking the MVM - E.ON Furnizare transaction is necessary. I was among the very few who dared to oppose it publicly, with clear arguments and data. [...] Based on the public information released today, it seems that the CSAT decided exactly what we defended then - rejecting the transaction and defending the national interest,” Burduja’s post reads.
In September 2024, the Romanian media announced that the MVM group - a Hungarian state-owned energy company - had reached an agreement with the German group E.On the acquisition of the gas and electricity supply division in Romania, in a transaction of strategic interest for the local market.
In August 2025, the Foreign Direct Investment Review Commission analysed the file and issued a negative opinion regarding the conclusion of the transaction, which pushed the entire process into the decisive stage: the evaluation of the Supreme Council of National Defence, the only forum authorised to give the final verdict in a deal with major political and economic stakes.

Romania took the presidency of the Central European Initiative (or CEI) on Wednesday, November 26, according to a press release from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MAE).
The organization is a regional intergovernmental forum established in 1989, following the fall of the Berlin Wall. It gathers 17 Member States in Central, Eastern, and South-Eastern Europe to promote regional cooperation for EU integration and sustainable development.
The handover of the presidency took place at the meeting of Foreign Ministers from the CEI member states, organized by Serbia in its capacity as the current presidency of the initiative. On the occasion, foreign minister Oana Țoiu delivered a recorded statement in which she highlighted Romania’s increasing commitment to regional cooperation and presented the priorities of the new presidency.
The priorities include supporting the European integration of candidate states by maintaining the CEI’s role as a bridge between EU member states and candidate states; strengthening the economic and business dimension in the CEI area, including by boosting connectivity projects; capitalizing on the local dimension of the CEI by involving local authorities, communities, and citizens; keeping in focus the fight against disinformation and the strengthening of resilience.
At the ministerial meeting in Belgrade, Romania was represented by the secretary of state for Romania’s OECD accession process, economic cooperation, the UN, and Francophonie, Luca Niculescu, according to Agerpres. In his remarks, he commended the efforts made by foreign minister Marko Djuric and the Serbian presidency team throughout the current mandate to strengthen the CEI’s role as a platform for dialogue and cooperation both among member states and between them and the EU.
Niculescu highlighted the progress of the Republic of Moldova, Ukraine, and the Western Balkan partners in the EU accession process, emphasizing the need for a credible enlargement process based on the candidates’ own merits, anchored in reforms. He condemned the Russian Federation’s war of aggression against Ukraine, a CEI member state, and reiterated Romania’s multidimensional support for Ukraine.
The event concluded with the adoption of a Joint Declaration, a document reconfirming the CEI member states’ support for the EU enlargement process, support for Ukraine, and the reaffirmation of the CEI’s role as a platform for regional cooperation in support of European integration and the sustainable development of member states.

Romania will introduce new penalties for retailers that refuse to replace defective products, under a new law recently promulgated by president Nicușor Dan. The measure requires traders to provide a replacement within 30 days when customers report that a purchased item is faulty, whether the purchase was made in-store or online.
The retailers that fail to comply will face fines ranging from RON 5,000 to RON 25,000.
“This change ensures the proper enforcement of the rights provided by law and strengthens consumer protection,” president Dan said in a post on social media.
The legislation amends the Government’s Emergency Ordinance 140/2021 on sales contracts and was initiated by a group of 23 Liberal Party lawmakers. It passed the Senate in June and the Chamber of Deputies in October, according to Digi24.

The Romanian business community reiterated its firm call to decision-makers to eliminate the minimum turnover tax (IMCA), in view of the discussions on the construction of the state budget for 2026, according to a statement signed by more than 100 employers' federations, business associations, and chambers of commerce in Romania.
The Romanian government will address the issue, not covered by the latest law on fiscal and budgetary measures currently pending Constitutional Court review, in December, according to prime minister Ilie Bolojan.
According to the message sent by the business community, the minimum turnover tax represents one of the main barriers to investment in a complicated macroeconomic and budgetary context and a tense geopolitical climate, and Romania's attractiveness for investors is already decreasing.
"By comparing the level of taxation in these countries, although in some places it could be considered that Romania has a lower taxation (given the corporate tax rate of 16%), taking into account the IMCA, companies charge a higher effective profit tax rate, which can even reach 90% in some situations," the message conveyed by the business community argues.

The revised bill that bans the cumulation of the public pension of a special (non-contributive) nature with a wage paid in the budgetary sector, currently available for public debate, will be amended so as to restrict the exceptions provisioned in the original form, labor minister Florin Manole said, according to Digi24.
Only the president, the members of the parliament, the members of the Constitutional Court (CCR), and those of the Supreme Council of Magistracy (CSM) will be exempt from the ban, he said.
Under the law as drafted by minister Manole's ministry, a larger category of public servants is accepted from the ban.
In a press conference held last Friday at Victoria Palace, prime minister Ilie Bolojan claimed that the government will have the project limiting the cumulation of pension with state salary ready by the beginning of this week.
Now, political sources have told Digi24.ro that the leaders of the governing coalition are still discussing what the exceptions in the project will be. In the coalition meeting on Tuesday, the leaders decided that they would wait for the CSM's opinion on the project and would resume negotiations later to analyse any possible constitutionality issues. In other words, the ruling parties are looking for a variant that will not fail the Constitutional Court's test.

Three bidders, from Romania, the European Union, and the United States, are interested in buying the local assets of Russian group Lukoil, which include a medium-sized refinery, a filling station chain, and an offshore gas perimeter under exploration, Romanian minister of energy Bogdan Ivan announced, according to Economica.net. There are also bidders interested in a global deal, he added.
Romania was notified several weeks ago, but the contract would be sealed between two private companies, minister Ivan said, implying that the Romanian authorities are not involved. Romania is certainly interested in seeing the deal sealed as soon as possible, he assured.
"At the moment, what we are doing is respecting US sanctions," said the minister, recalling that there are also offers from Romania for the Lukoil refinery and gas stations.
Ivan explained that Romania did not request an extension of the period from which the American sanctions against Lukoil would apply because "we are not dependent on Russian resources."
Minister Ivan also said that a law is to be published by which the state can initiate special administration for Lukoil's assets, according to Economica.net. It remains unclear, according to his statements, whether his ministry is involved or not in the process.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which is responsible for implementing these types of sanctions [such as against Lukoil], together with the other relevant ministries - because it is a government action - is drafting a regulatory act to which we have contributed since last week, with technical expertise from the Ministry of Energy, precisely to ensure the creation of a legal framework through which there would be a form of supervision for the respective assets and economic activities," Ivan stated.
After initially planning to temporarily take over the management of Lukoil's Petrotel refinery, the most problematic of Lukoil's local assets, Romanian authorities announced that regulations would be drafted such as to smooth the sale of the Russian group's assets. No such special regulation was announced yet, however, and it remains unclear what such regulations would provide.
Asked about the developments regarding the Petrotel refinery, president Nicusor Dan seemed to know nothing more than energy minister Bogdan Ivan.
"For the moment, we have a postponement until December 13, as you know, during this entire interval, the government can take some measures," president Dan said.
"The refinery is not operating at the moment; it is under maintenance. Nothing dramatic will happen next week, in the next two weeks," he added.

Romanian president Nicusor Dan reiterated in a speech at the 2025 Digital Governance Summit organised by Edge Institute at Cotroceni Palace and published on the Presidency's webpage, thus making it somewhat official, an invitation addressed to the "private community" to draft regulations and sectoral policies that the state is unfortunately unable to design, such as to introduce them in the legislation procedure.
"Until this state is able to assimilate ideas and transform them into projects - I estimate two years from now - I encourage those in the private sector to come with already developed processes, already developed analyses, already written draft normative acts to gain time," president Nicușor Dan told the business representatives present at the business forum.
The proposal, seen by some as a plain demise from the state authority, was for the first time made by president Dan several weeks ago in the context of a conference organised by the business association Concordia, whose former executive president Radu Burnete currently serves as Dan's advisor for economic and social matters. The idea prompted criticism.
"How about One Properties [real estate developer] making laws in the urban planning area? Or malls making laws in the commercial area? Or Wizzair making laws in aviation?" wondered political expert Răzvan Petri in a Facebook post cited by Hotnews.ro.
Petri's question comes in the context in which, before becoming president, Nicușor Dan had several lawsuits and conflicts with the company One Properties, related to real estate development.
"Finally, what I want to highlight is another dissonance: we are told [by the state] that Romania seeks to become the second military power in Eastern Europe and that we have reached 'maturity' in the EU (this is specified in the National Defense Strategy of the Country drafted by the Presidency). How did we reach maturity if the state is in ruins and entrepreneurs have to come in to make laws? What message are we sending abroad, then?" Petri also wrote on Facebook.

Romanian defense minister Ionuț Moșteanu resigned on Friday, November 28, after a scandal regarding inconsistencies in his resume triggered by a journalistic investigation. The controversy erupted after Libertatea reported that Moșteanu had falsely claimed in his first official CV to have graduated from Athenaeum University - an institution that said he was never a student - prompting him to admit it was a “mistake” and to present a different diploma obtained in 2015.
Prime minister Ilie Bolojan confirmed that he has taken note of Ionuț Moșteanu’s resignation as minister of defense, adding that he will propose to the president that the interim position be filled by Radu Miruță, the minister of economy.
In the official announcement on Friday, Moșteanu said he communicated his decision to resign to the president, prime minister, and party leadership.
“Romania and Europe are under assault by Russia. Our national security must be defended at all costs. I do not want discussions about my education and the mistakes I made many years ago to distract those who now lead the country from their difficult mission,” he stated.
The outgoing minister highlighted that during the five months in office, he “strengthened relationships with allies, monitored and accelerated equipment programs, improved the legal framework, and defended the rights of those who serve the homeland.” He also suggested that he disrupted corrupt interest groups in the defense sector.
Earlier this week, Ionuț Moșteanu published his bachelor's degree on Facebook in response to the investigation and attacks from the leader of the far-right opposition party AUR, George Simion. Criticism also came from the leading ruling Social Democratic Party, or PSD, which has routinely exchanged blows with Moșteanu’s reformist, center-right party, Union Save Romania (or USR), despite forming a coalition.
In the post accompanying his bachelor’s degree, Ionuț Moșteanu explained that he holds a BSc in management obtained in 2015 from Bioterra University, an institution with a rather low profile. He added that he attended courses at Athenaeum University in the 90s and that he interrupted courses at the more prestigious Computer Engineering University to work.
He also admitted to a key mistake. “In a CV that I quickly made in 2016 by using an online template, there remained a mistake which, I admit, embarrasses me. I did not pay much attention to these details at the time. For this, I apologize,” he said in the post on Facebook.
The issue is not simply one of reputation. Between 2015–2016, Ionuț Moșteanu was an adviser in the Ministry of Transport and a member of the Board of Directors of several state-owned companies, positions that required, according to the legislation in force at that time, higher education studies. To qualify, he submitted a CV featuring a diploma from the Athenaeum University, the only one he held at the time. Nevertheless, the now-minister later removed the diploma from his official biography.
After becoming a parliamentarian, Ionuț Moșteanu posted another CV on the website of the Chamber of Deputies, in which there is no longer any reference to Athenaeum University. Instead, studies at Bioterra University are listed, between 1996–1999, also in Management. In a response to Libertatea, Athenaeum University denied that Moșteanu had ever been enrolled as a student.
During an interview, Ionuț Moșteanu insisted that his only university degree is from Bioterra and that it was obtained in 2015. Doubts, however, continued to linger and impact his party, which has long insisted on transparency and honesty. Before Mosteanu’s resignation, USR leaders gathered for a meeting to address the scandal.

The exhibition RomanIa – Identity representation of traditional dress in art, currently on view at the National Museum of Art of Romania (MNAR), gathers a variety of artistic representations of the traditional blouse ia, from painting and sculpture, to drawing, photography, installation, film, music, posters, fashion, books, albums, and more.
It includes works by Henri Matisse, Nicolae Grigorescu, Theodor Pallady, Iosif Iser, Marcel Iancu, and Mircea Cantor, among others, gathered from 25 museums from Romania and five museums from abroad: Centre Pompidou and Fondation Louis Vuitton in France; the National Art Gallery in Sofia, Bulgaria; the Hryhorii Galagan Regional Art Museum of Cernihiv, Ukraine, as well as the Republic of Moldova.
"The fact that we were able to put together an exhibition where we have one work from Ukraine says a lot about the fight for normality. This exhibition is a normal one, but, of course, in the current historical context, of Romania's economic deprivation and of the geopolitical situation, it is completely abnormal," the MNAR interim director Erwin Kessler explained at the opening of the show.
Kessler recounted how, just hours after becoming interim director, he emailed the Centre Pompidou president to remind him about an earlier discussion about creating an exhibition that would properly contextualize La Blouse Roumaine. He soon received a positive answer, and the exhibition went forward, despite others doubting that it would, he explained.
"The exhibition is large, dense, and very disturbing in many cases. […] Even if in places it will seem that we have dug a hole for all of us, I said that without seeing the abysses, you cannot see the beauties. We have parts of the exhibition that are very good, we have ugly parts, because we have ugly parts in our history," he said.
The 'Mona Lisa of the exhibition', as Erwin Kessler called it, is Henri Matisse's La Blouse Roumaine, on loan from the Centre Pompidou. The work, which leaves France for the first time for this exhibition, inspired Yves Saint Laurent's 1981 fall-winter collection, which paid homage to the French artist. This was followed by numerous iterations of various elements of the traditional dress by other fashion designers.
The show traces the ia's prominent place as a subject in local art beginning with the 16th century. One of the first works displayed is a fragment of a fresco mural depicting Lady Roxanda (before 1526), the daughter of the 16th-century Wallachian ruler Neagoe Basarab and later a first lady of Wallachia. The portrait, the work of Dobromir the Painter (Dobromir Zugravu), was removed from the church of the Curtea de Argeş Monastery in 1883. It shows the official image of a voivode's wife of the era, wearing an embroidered ia.
Various examples of high-profile personalities wearing the ia are included in the exhibition. Among them is the Portrait of Mariţica Bibescu by Constantin Lecca. A member of a local aristocratic family, she became the wife of Gheorghe Bibescu, a prince of Wallachia between 1843 and until the Revolution of 1848, when he was dethroned.
Similarly, Revolutionary Romania, the Eugène Delacroix-inspired work by Daniel Constantin Rosenthal, depicts the country as a determined young woman wearing a blouse typical of the Muscel region. The work was created in Paris several years after the 1848 Revolution. The model was Maria Rossetti, born in Great Britain as Mary Grant, to Scottish-French parents, and the wife of revolutionary C.A. Rossetti.
Members of the Romanian royal family, from Queen Elisabeth, the wife of King Carol I, to Queen Marie, the wife of King Ferdinand I, have donned the traditional blouse and costume in various photos and official portraits. It is the case of Princess Elisabeth in Traditional Costume by George Peter Alexander Healey, or of Portrait of Queen Marie in National Costume by Albertine (Tini) Rupprecht, two works included in the exhibition. Later, during the interwar period, representations of the traditional blouse reconceived the ia, as was the case with works pertaining to the Avant-garde movement.
The exhibition also highlights how the traditional costume was deployed for various ends by political figures, among them Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, the founder and leader of the interwar ultranationalist and anti-Semitic organization the Iron Guard. Later, the official art of the Communist regime also deployed the traditional blouse as an element of national identity. The appropriation of the ia as an instrument of propaganda is presented through various contemporary works, and the show also documents the "excesses connected to the ia as a fixed identity brand."
The exhibition was put together using private funds entirely, the MNAR director explained, pointing to the support from Fundatia Amzei.
The exhibition is curated by Erwin Kessler, alongside a team that includes Judit Balint, Mălina Conțu, Alina Petrescu, Emanuela Cernea, and Costina Anghel.
Throughout the duration of the exhibition, several other events will be organized, including debates, concerts, and film screenings on the topic.
It can be visited until February 8, 2026.

AFI Romania, part of the leading real estate development, management, and investment company operating across Central and Eastern Europe, AFI Group, announced that it secured a EUR 537 million refinancing package for three major projects in its portfolio: AFI Cotroceni, AFI Brașov, and AFI Ploiești. The three projects included in the refinancing are among the most prominent shopping centers in Romania.
The company said this represents the largest real estate refinancing transaction in Romania, reinforcing AFI’s long-term commitment to the growth and development of its projects in the country.
The financing was provided by Erste Bank, Banca Comercială Română SA, Raiffeisen Bank SA, Raiffeisen Bank International, and Unicredit Bank SA represented by Dentons. Law firm CMS assisted AFI.

These refinancing operations consolidate AFI Romania’s position as one of the country’s leading real estate developers and investors, well-positioned to continue its expansion plans and deliver benchmark projects for the local business landscape.

Romania’s leading bank, Banca Transilvania, announced the successful completion of its first AT1 (Additional Tier 1) bond issuance on the Dublin Stock Exchange. The final volume of subscribed orders reached over EUR 2.65 billion, representing an oversubscription 5.3 times higher than the amount BT intended to raise.
More than 180 investors, a record in Banca Transilvania’s bond issuances, from the European Union, the United Kingdom, the US, and other markets supported the transaction, both in terms of reception on the capital markets and the price setting.
In just two hours from the launch of the transaction, investors submitted orders worth EUR 2 billion, in a book that reached a maximum level of approximately EUR 3.25 billion with help from US-based investors.
Considering the strong demand, Banca Transilvania managed to reduce the coupon rate from 7.625% (as initially estimated) to 7.125% as the final yield.
The final price of the AT1 bonds reflects only 200 basis points above the last senior unsecured transaction from September 2024, a difference that is below the average of other banks in Western Europe. It is also the largest AT1 bond issuance in Central and Eastern Europe, according to the bank.
“The AT1 bond issuance complements our solid capital position, while also allowing for a more diversified and optimized capital structure, for the benefit of shareholders and clients. With this capital instrument issuance, we are fully prepared to continue our growth, and I am particularly pleased to see the high interest coming from international markets,” declared Ömer Tetik, CEO of Banca Transilvania.
The bonds are denominated in euros and have an early redemption option starting on November 27, 2030. The minimum subscription level was EUR 200,000.
The bonds are expected to be issued on November 27, 2025, on Euronext, the Dublin Stock Exchange.
The new bond issuance raises the value of the 6 bond issuances launched by Banca Transilvania starting from 2023 to nearly EUR 3 billion. Except for the bond issuance in RON and the subordinated bond placement, all other bonds are listed on Euronext Dublin.

Romania has closed its participation in the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale with the conclusion of Human Scale, the exhibition presented in the Romanian Pavilion at Giardini della Biennale and in the New Gallery of the Romanian Institute of Culture and Humanistic Research. Meanwhile, the project’s official catalogue has been made available to the public.
The project formed part of a record-breaking edition of the Biennale, which saw 298,000 tickets sold and 17,584 professional visitors during the opening days - the highest attendance in the event’s history. According to official data quoted in a press release, the audience was evenly split between international and Italian visitors (50%-50%), while people under 26 accounted for 28% of the total - more than 84,000 individuals.
Coinciding with the exhibition’s final week, the official Human Scale catalogue has been released to the public. First launched in Venice on November 20, the publication will receive its official Bucharest presentation on December 10 at the Union of Romanian Architects. It is also available through IDEA publishing.
The catalogue documents the exhibition, reproduces works shown across both venues, and includes texts by the project’s authors and curator outlining the conceptual framework and research themes.
Developed by artist Vlad Nancă, architecture studio Muromuro, and curator Cosmina Goagea, Human Scale explored architectural drawing as a critical tool and an archive of social change, focusing on the “human-as-symbol” figure found in 20th-century architectural plans and historic maps. The project unfolded across two complementary spaces: a visual installation in the Romanian Pavilion and a research-focused archive display in the New Gallery.
Throughout 2025, Human Scale expanded beyond Venice through workshops, conferences, and cultural events in Romania, engaging audiences at universities, festivals, and professional platforms.

The “Dimitrie Gusti” National Village Museum in Bucharest is set to host the Saint Andrew Fair between November 29 and December 1, celebrating both the Day of Saint Andrew the Apostle, the Protector of Romania, and December 1, Romania’s National Day.
The museum will set up small shops for skilled craftsmen who will bring traditional objects for bargaining. Traditional foods will also be available, according to the museum website.
After the military parade on December 1, the Military Tradition Association will also be present in the museum for a demonstration and presentation of military costumes dating back to 1918.
Saint Andrew the Apostle is celebrated by Romanians every year on November 30. Beginning in 1995, the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church decided that the feast should be marked with a red cross in the church calendar, highlighting its importance, according to Libertatea.
Saint Andrew the Apostle and his brother, Saint Peter the Apostle, were the sons of Jonah, a poor fisherman from Galilee. They lived from fishing until they heard Saint John the Baptist preaching in the wilderness of the Jordan and announcing the coming of the Messiah.
Andrew is also known as “the first-called” (to apostleship). He accompanied Jesus Christ through the Holy Land and witnessed the miracles He performed. He saw Jesus rise from the dead and went forth preaching the Gospel throughout Asia Minor.
Saint Andrew the Apostle began by preaching the Gospel in Asia Minor. From there, he came to the lands between the Danube and the Black Sea and Christianized the population in present-day Romania.
St. Andrew was later executed by crucifixion. According to tradition, he considered himself unworthy to be crucified in the same manner as Jesus, so he begged to be given a differently shaped cross. This is how he came to be crucified on an X-shaped cross in Patras, near Corinth.
Despite its Christian origins, St. Andrew’s Day is also marked by pre-Christian traditions and superstitions. Many consider this night to be the Romanians’ equivalent of Halloween, as this is when spirits go out into the world, the wolves are able to speak, and people use garlic to protect themselves against evil and spells.
Meanwhile, girls who want to know who they will marry place basil under their pillows on the night of November 29 to November 30. The same basil is also used by priests of the Orthodox Church for various holidays or moments of mass.
Another St. Andrew’s Day tradition is to plant wheat seeds and keep them indoors until New Year’s Eve. Some people also take small branches from a fruit tree, put them in water, and keep them until the Christmas holiday. If the branches bloom, the trees will make lots of fruit in the coming year, the tradition says.
Close to a million Romanians celebrate their name day on St. Andrew’s Day. Over 535,000 are men named Andrei or similarly, and roughly 435,000 are women named Andreea or its derivatives.

Fondul Proprietatea (FP), as a minority shareholder (20%) at Bucharest Airports Company (CAB), proposed that the company could issue, under an IPO at Bucharest Exchange (BVB), a number of shares equal to half of its current shares, to finance the construction of a new terminal. The operation would preserve the state's majority position and generate an estimated EUR 500 million for the company to use for investments, FP argued.
Fondul Proprietatea reconfirmed on November 24 its support for the company's listing on the BVB, considering that it would be an important moment for the development of the Romanian capital market and an opportunity for the development of the airport infrastructure in the capital area, Ziarul Financiar reported.
In the opinion of Franklin Templeton International Services, Sole Administrator of FP, a listing of CNAB could constitute an important source of financing for the construction of a new terminal at Henri Coandă International Airport, which Romania urgently needs.
To achieve this goal, Fondul Proprietatea draws attention to the fact that it is necessary to strengthen the corporate governance of CNAB, as well as to prepare immediate preliminary steps, such as hiring a financial auditor with prior experience in capital market transactions.

The Bucharest National Opera will open the Romania–Italy Cultural Year 2026 with a gala concert in Rome on December 1, Romania’s National Day. The event, hosted at the prestigious Teatro dell’Opera di Roma, is organized by the Romanian Embassy in Italy in partnership with the Bucharest National Opera and supported by Romania’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Culture.
Soprano Anita Hartig, mezzo-soprano Ruxandra Donose, and tenor Ștefan Pop will perform alongside the Bucharest National Opera Orchestra, conducted by Daniel Jinga.
The program includes major works from both Romanian and Italian repertoire, featuring arias, duets, orchestral selections, and pieces chosen to highlight the artistic strengths of the three soloists, according to the press release.
“The Romania–Italy Cultural Year 2026, organized under the High Patronage of His Excellency Nicușor Dan, President of Romania, and His Excellency Sergio Mattarella, President of the Italian Republic, will present an extensive program of events designed to celebrate the special ties between our countries and to honor the shared cultural heritage that unites us,” said Romanian ambassador Gabriela Dancău.
“In the coming months, we will celebrate in Italy the beauty and depth of the Romanian spirit through art and sculpture exhibitions, exceptional film screenings, archaeology exhibitions that will bring ancient vestiges back to life, grand concerts and theatre performances filled with emotion and sensitivity - events that are part of the Romania–Italy Cultural Year 2026 program,” she added.
Teatro dell’Opera di Roma, one of Italy’s most renowned opera institutions, offers the event significant international visibility due to its reputation and history within the cultural life of Rome. Opera director Daniel Jinga said that performing in Rome on December 1 represents an opportunity to present Romanian culture in a respected international setting and to strengthen long-term artistic collaboration between Romania and Italy.
The Rome concert opens a wider program of exchanges planned for 2026. The next event will take place on December 3 at La Scala in Milan, where Romanian soprano Iulia Isaev and baritone Alexandru Constantin, accompanied by pianist Liana Mareș, will present a recital in the Ridotto dei Palchi “Arturo Toscanini” hall.

The final version of Romania's national defence strategy 2025-2030, as amended following the public consultations and approved by the members of the Supreme National Defence Council (CSAT), is to be presented by president Nicusor Dan in Parliament, where it will be debated and voted on by lawmakers.
The Romanian state must be prepared to manage the risks of a large-scale, long-lasting armed conflict near its borders and, at the same time, strengthen its national resilience, CSAT concluded.
Defense minister Ionuţ Mosteanu explained that the new national strategy aims for Romania to become the second military power on the eastern flank and a defense provider in the Black Sea area, according to Radio Romania Actualitati.
The CSAT approved, on its meeting of November 24, the assessment of risks, threats and vulnerabilities forecasted for 2026, as well as the Strategic Defense Analysis, documents that aim to identify and develop the recommendations necessary to manage the challenges to national security, adapt the Army to the new strategic environment, to major changes in the international security situation, as well as to the national commitments assumed within Nato and the EU, according to the Presidency's press release.
"The Strategy expresses the president's vision, that of a modern and secure Romania, which enjoys peace and its unique advantages, a state built around its citizens, in the service of their fundamental rights and freedoms, with transparent and integrity institutions, oriented exclusively towards the public good," the CSAT press release reads.
The CSAT also analysed the Investment Plan in Romania's defense industry, developed under the SAFE Regulation, based on which Romania's application will be submitted to the European Commission in application of Council Regulation (EU) 2025/1106 of May 27, 2025, establishing the SAFE Instrument for strengthening the European defense industry.
With a total value of EUR 16.7 billion (soft loans), the SAFE funds earmarked to Romania will be used in proportion of 75% for the acquisition of military equipment, public order, and civil defense. The difference of 25% represents funds allocated to the dual infrastructure, more precisely, the two sections of the highway - Pașcani-Siret and Pașcani-Ungheni.
Romania's most consistent programs have a condition of production in the country of at least 50%; in some cases, this percentage will be 100% for reasons of security and sovereignty over a critical production process.

The Romanian Film Festival UK (RFF25UK) begins this week with a program showcasing a selection of new and archive Romanian feature films, documentaries, and shorts.
The festival will open with the UK premiere of Traffic, Romania's 2026 Academy Awards entry. The film is directed by Teodora Ana Mihai from a screenplay by Palme d'Or–winning filmmaker Cristian Mungiu. The film is inspired by the real-life case of a burglary committed by a group of Romanians at the Kunsthal Rotterdam in October 2012.
It will close with Radu Jude's Kontinental '25, a film that brought the Romanian director the Silver Bear for Best Screenplay at this year's Berlin International Film Festival/ Berlinale.
The program also includes a screening of the digitally restored Forest of the Hanged. Director Liviu Ciulei won the Best Director award at the Cannes Film Festival in 1965 for this.
Also in the program are Tudor Giurgiu's The Spruce Forest, which recounts the horrors of the Fântâna Albă massacre, as well as the Romanian New Wave landmark The Death of Mr Lazarescu, directed by Cristi Puiu.
"This year's program highlights the evolution of Romanian cinema — its courage, humor, and deeply human stories. Each film in the lineup reflects our shared experiences of resilience, love, and identity. We are proud to welcome outstanding Romanian film personalities to the UK, who will share and discuss their latest works with audiences in London and beyond," RFF 25 artistic director Alexandru Gherman said.
The festival takes place from November 27 to December 1. In addition to the main event in London, it will also feature a pop-up screening in Colchester, Essex. Screenings will be held daily at Curzon Soho, with a special pop-up event at Firstsite Gallery in Colchester.
The festival is organized by film and TV marketing professional Manuela R. Morar and film and theatre director Alexandru Gherman.
