CES List: These are the Top 10 Romanian economy performers
With some exceptional past years marked by the Covid pandemic, distortion of the supply chains, rising prices, followed by the Ukraine war and now the Israeli – Gaza conflict that threatens with at least global shock waves across various economies, turbulence and unpredictability are the key words of our times.
It is thus relevant to understand which are the industries, sectors and companies that contribute the most to Romania’s incomes, especially in fragile times. According to their public financial statements registered at the Romanian Finance Ministry, 10 companies in the energy, tobacco, automotive and retail segments are the top performers of the Romanian economy.
