One of the key drivers for the change of the outlook are a structural deterioration in public finances compounded by an increase in long-term liabilities that relate to the 2019 pension reform, Moody’s said on April 24 in a press release.
The agency also voiced concerns about a worsening of the country’s external position with an increase in short-term foreign-currency debt that heightens the country’s susceptibility to event risk.
On April 17, Fitch Ratings also revised Romania’s outlook to negative from stable, while affirming its long-term foreign and local currency issuer default ratings at "BBB-", Trading Economics noted.
