New Construction market report from Business Monitor International: "Romania Infrastructure Report Q1 2015"

Boston, MA -- (SBWire) -- 11/28/2014 --BMI believes that Romanian construction fell back into recession in 2014 primarily due to the lack of new projects that would drive growth. A number of mismanaged and cancelled projects have also dampened the construction sector's performance. As the government announces new tenders and works on a framework strategy for the transport sector, the EU's 2014-2020 cohesion funds will start filtering through. Consequently, BMI forecasts cautious recovery as of 2016. Residential and non-residential sectors as well as the energy sector will be adding upside risk to our forecast as rising GDP per capita will add buoyancy to the housing construction and forthcoming Chinese financing will prop the energy sector. Poorly managed and cancelled road projects and a move into a new period of EU-cohesion funding have dampened the construction sector performance in 2014. Meanwhile, residential and non-residential sectors have outperformed BMI 's expectations. The e nergy sector also looks promisin g with the Romanian government making headway with the tendering process of the Cernovada nuclear plant.
