Business Environment Rating: Romania's score in BMI's proprietary Business Environment Ratings (BERs) remains stable and unchanged, despite the identification of further risks to our projections in March 2011. Medium-term projections for strong growth have been maintained, translating into stability in our BER analysis. Key Trends & Developments * Our projections that Romania's pharmaceutical market will continue to see high-single- * Driven by underfunding in public healthcare provision, Romania's private health system is expected to expand aggressively over the next five years. Private substitution is a critical component of the sector's development as restricted access to publicly-funded medical services drives patients towards private insurance and hospitals. BMI also highlights the potential for public-private partnerships to support the provision of public medical services in the long term. * The amount owed by the Romanian Health Ministry and the Romanian Health Insurance House (CNAS) to pharmacies and distributors for drug reimbursement has reached RON1.92bn (US$656.59mn) * The Romanian government is introducing new regulations pertaining to demographic limitations on the opening of new pharmacies. While this may benefit established pharmacies by reducing competition, it may lead to reduced access to medicine and subsequently affect consumption. The new regulation restricts the opening of new pharmacies in Romania to one for every 3,000 citizens in Bucharest, every 3,500 in cities which are county capitals and every 4,000 in other locations in the country. BMI Economic View: We forecast the Romanian economy to emerge from its two-year long recession in 2011 and make a steady return to growth. The spectacular performance of Romanian exports through recent months, and the concurrent surge in domestic industrial activity, will be central to this recovery, offsetting ongoing austerity by the government. We forecast 2011 growth at 2.1%, and expect the economy to accelerate to a 3.7% expansion in 2012. BMI Political View: Despite public discontent with the fiscal austerity and economic reform being implemented by the coalition government, we do not expect a political crisis to befall Romania in 2011. However, we believe the current coalition looks set to suffer defeat in the 2012 parliamentary elections, which we expect to result in a reconstituted coalition government.About Business Monitor International Business Monitor International (BMI) offers a comprehensive range of products and services designed to help senior executives, analysts and researchers assess and better manage operating risks, and exploit business opportunities, across 175 markets.
