The most recent results of the FIC Business Sentiment Index (carried out in September 2018) brings some important insights on both workforce and fiscal related topics. “Still there is a continued dichotomy between FIC members expecting higher revenues and business growth in the short-term but being concerned about the lack of infrastructure and stability of the regulatory framework. FIC maintains its position that, in due time, the lack of predictability and of investments will reduce the economy’s competitiveness and long-term growth potential,” the index shows, according to RomaniaJournal.ro.
