Abstract

The paper describes the version (2012) of the Romanian economic macromodel2. The model has been constructed taking into account the important consequences induced by the integration of the country into the European Union and by the world crisis. Some supplementary requests of the government agencies which use this forecasting tool were also included. The first chapter presents the general architecture of this version. As an applicative exercise, the second chapter estimates the preliminary indicators for 2013 and comments several predictive simulations for the next year. Some concluding remarks close our presentation.
