Fiscal-budgetary policy: evolutions and priorities for the coming years. The proposals / intentions for significant additional increases in budgetary expenditures and / or potential tax and duty reductions in the coming years do not correspond to the reality of the figures, being in total contradiction with the rigor of fiscal consolidation. In fact, if we don’t prove that we have a clear and credible fiscal consolidation plan after the elections, we will likely lose the investment rating that we still have. How do we increase the level of tax collection? In no case should we increase taxes and tariffs, this being the sure recipe to prolong the economic recession. The problem is mainly collection, the weak tax administration system in Romania is obviously a problem, and the successful example of countries like Poland and Bulgaria in terms of tax administration reform shows that it can significantly improve tax collection and rights. mainly by digitization. This is the direction we must go. About 2% of extra GDP can be contributed to the budget over a 2-3 year horizon through determined efforts to digitize the fiscal administration. Second, the Romanian tax system must be reviewed and restored fairly, without increasing the standard tax level. At the same time, it must be said bluntly: tax cuts are not possible. Who promises tax cuts, sells illusions, writes Ionuț Dumitru in Ziarul Finance.
How many thousand euros does a minute of promotion on television for matches cost?. A party has to pay tens of thousands of euros to a television channel if it wants a candidate to be present on an electoral program. The parties have the right in the campaign to buy space for television broadcasts in order to promote their electoral offer. According to the decision of the National Audiovisual Council, the rates per broadcast and per unit of time will be the same for all competitors. In the parliamentary campaign, the sums demanded by the televisions exceeded 100,000 euros for an hour of electoral broadcast in which a candidate participates. Free Europe has tried to find out the exact amounts demanded by private party televisions, under what conditions these amounts are paid and for what. For example, the local campaign was three times more expensive than in 2016, given that it was a difficult economic year, and the coronavirus pandemic made large important political events impossible. It should be noted that public television, TVR, does not charge a fee for electoral promotion, according to Free Europe.

X-ray of an unsolvable problem: labor shortage. What the parties propose. In the electoral campaign, the parties put forward proposals to revitalize the economy, but none seem prepared for the changes brought about by the pandemic and they do not have clear solutions to solve the labor shortage, a serious problem that Romania has been fighting for many years. Simona Muntele is 32 years old and in early 2018 she decided to move from Bucharest to Amsterdam. He had a secure job at a multinational IT company in the capital, and leaving the country was not on his priority list until then, especially since IT professionals are among the highest paid employees in the country. “Those who work in the field of IT and technology do not go for the money, they look for something else,” he confesses, who assures that he has not found himself in the society in which he lived. “First it was the Colectiv tragedy, then the protests against the PSD in 2017,” the young woman explains. This is how she and her husband went to Holland. “I did not leave for economic reasons, but because I no longer bear corruption, not only from politicians, because I don’t interact with them every day. I was depressed when I went out to these protests to see people from my generation, whom I respect, who did not think that corruption affects you anyway and who were not even outraged by something that is not normal, “she argues. , according to Free Europe.
The crisis will be felt strongly in 2021: rising unemployment, depreciation of the leu and rising prices. The Macroeconomic Confidence Indicator of the CFA Romania Association decreased in October compared to the previous month by 2.3 points to 32.1 points (compared to the same month of the previous year, the Indicator decreased by 22.4 points). This evolution was due to the current conditions component of the indicator. Thus, the Current Conditions Indicator decreased, compared to the previous month by 13.2 points, to 19.9 points (compared to the same month of the previous year, the Current Conditions Indicator decreased by 45.2 points). The Anticipation Indicator increased by 3.2 points compared to the previous month, to the value of 38.2 points (compared to the same month of the previous year, the Anticipation Indicator decreased by 11.0 points). Regarding the EUR / RON exchange rate, all survey participants anticipate a depreciation of the leu in the next 12 months (compared to the current value). Thus, the average value of the forecasts for the 6-month horizon is 4.9398, while for the 12-month horizon the average value of the forecasted exchange rate is 5.0102 lei per euro, write the truth.
What are the possibilities of achieving the “revolution” of electric transport. What are the electric car models that offer the best price-for-range ratio?. Although at this time growing concerns about climate change appear to be somewhat overshadowed by developments in the pandemic, the global transition to electric vehicles is still in full swing. Experts say that by 2040, electric vehicle sales are expected to account for 58% of new car sales, up from just 2.7% today. But the transition from a conventional fuel to an electric car is not without its problems. Given the charging capacity and autonomy, as well as the slow-growing supporting infrastructure in many parts of the world, understanding all elements of electricity transmission is very important. write FinEco24News.
