Markets are affected by the public discourse and are the first to react, Romanian central bank governor Mugur Isarescu declared at the public radio station. He reiterated that the country's risk payment is very high even if the bank's reserve is big enough and the debt small. Isarescu said that the country pays very high costs compared to the level of the reserve and that of the debt precisely because of the political discourse. In his opinion, Romanian will fell an improvement in one year and a half.
