Concerning the AmCham priorities for this year, Ionuț Simion, President of the AmCham Romania Board of Directors stated: “Given the rapid and unpredictable spread of the impact of this public health crisis on the society and on the economy, the private sector needs to actively engage in a twofold mission– to limit the immediate negative effects and to identify post-crisis measures to restart the economic activity.  We will continue to advance proposals, analysis and recommendations that reflect the views of AmCham members, in line with our mission to represent the business community. Although the Government announced that it will suspend transparency in decision-making and public consultations during the emergency state, we strongly believe that the private sector needs to be consulted as it plays a vital role for the economy.”

AmCham Romania reiterates the importance of a consistent and constructive public-private dialogue, focused on adopting efficient and modern public policies that will contribute to overcoming the current crisis and also to recover the gaps that Romania has in critical areas such as healthcare, education, infrastructure, digitalization of public services, gaps that are even more evident in the current context.
