The technical platform of the system is operated on behalf of the Eurosystem by three national central banks, namely Banca d’Italia, Banque de France and Deutsche Bundesbank. rnrnThe introduction of TARGET2-România is a step forward towards European integration and euro adoption, by implementing efficient payment systems tailored to European standards. rnThe BNR is the 24th national central bank that connects to TARGET2 of the 28 central banks making up the European System of Central Banks (including the European Central Bank). rnrnMore detailed information on TARGET2 is available on the BNR’s official website, www.bnr.ro.

Neutral interest rate in Romania

The neutral nominal rate in Romania has been falling since the start of inflation targeting in 2005. The Taylor Rule clearly shows that interest rates peaked in 2022 and have been on a clear downward path ever since.Furthermore, the model estimates a long-term neutral nominal rate of around 3.9%, which is the equivalent of approx. 1.4% real.Using a more sophisticated model (i.e. New York FED’S HLW model), the real neutral interest rate in Romania is estimated currently at around 1.5% (1.7% 2023 average) and the historical mean at 1.2%.This implies a neutral nominal rate between 4.00% and 4.50%. In the past decade, the NBR real effective rate was below the neutral rate and only over the past year climbed above the neutral mark.Source: Erste Bank
