For 2017, the CNP estimates an economic growth of 4.3pct in Romania, also on the rise from the autumn forecast of 4.2pct.
The nominal GDP is estimated at 751.5 billion lei in 2016 and at 801 billion lei in 2017.
Services (with 1.6pct), followed by industry (1.2pct) will have the most significant contribution to the real increase in GDP this year.
Domestic demand will record an advance of 4.8pct in 2016, compared to 4.6pct last year, and a 4.8pct rise in domestic demand is estimated for 2017. Gross fixed capital formation [investments] is expected to rise by 6.4pct this year and by 6.6pct in 2017, above the estimates in November 2015.
Economic growth will maintain also in the coming years, with a GDP advance of 4.5pct being estimated for 2018 and 4.7pct for 2019.
