flag Romania to cut 2026 eurobond issuance, use EU funds to lower debt costs and deficit.

flag Romania plans to cut eurobond issuance in 2026 by accessing about 8 billion euros in cheaper funding from the EU and international lenders, aiming to stabilize its fiscal position amid a high budget deficit and credit rating concerns. flag The move, supported by EU recovery and defense funds, is part of broader reforms including spending cuts and tax increases to reduce the deficit to around 6%. flag This strategy, combined with improved investor confidence, has helped lower long-term borrowing costs in lei below 7% for the first time this year and reduced interest rates on retail government bonds. flag The government also completed a major debt refinancing, extending maturities to reduce refinancing risk. flag Meanwhile, unemployment held steady at 5.9% in September 2025, and the country faces pressure to recover 9.42 billion lei in unpaid taxes from state-owned enterprises by November.
