ANEIR: In 2011, Romania's export targets aggressively extra-EU markets
ACTMedia - 10 Noiembrie 2010
Romania's exports will focus in 2011 on the main partner, the EU countries, and also to the extra-EU area, whose share will rise, said on November 8 Mihai Ionescu, secretary general of the Association of Romanian Exporters and Importers (ANEIR) and co-president of the Export Council.
'At present, 72% of Romanian exports are absorbed by the EU countries. The national export strategy for 2010-2015 aims at important rise on extra-EU area. We do not want to decrease the export to the EU in terms of value, we want to keep it but also to increase the share of the export in the non-European area, and here we refer mainly to the Chinese market', said the co-president of the Export Council.
Speaking about the rise in exports this year, Mihai Ionescu said this is owed to exporters and especially to the exchange rate stabilization efforts of Romania's Central Bank (BNR).
'The success of the Romanian export equally belongs to exporters and BNR. It is true that, in time of crisis, approximately one third of them are gone. We have lost 7,000 exporters. The main pillar that backed us was the exchange rate, more exactly its stability. I take this opportunity to thank BNR again for understanding we struggled not so much for a certain exchange rate, although we were interested also in its level, as for stability', underscored the co-president of the Export Council.
At present, Romania's exports have reached a level close to that before the crisis. 'We have to recoup some 300 million euro to erase the entire loss of 4.7 billion euro in the 12 months of recession. It is a fact that gives us hope', said the secretary general of ANEIR Romania's 2010-2014 National Export Strategy was launched for public debate on Monday. It will be validated through a Government Decision that will be issued until the end of this year, said state secretary Borbely Karoly.
