520 |a In Romania, the share of firms carrying out investment is amongst the lowest in the European Union. This is despite strong economic growth in recent years and persistent needs for upgrading the capital stock in the country.

It also contributes to the debate on why investment in central, eastern and south eastern Europe has remained relatively subdued after the crisis.
