“…Even though Romania is well known as an emigration country (Sandu and De Jong, 1996;Roman et al, 2010;Simionescu, 2016;Goschin, 2018;Davidescu et al, 2019), we chose immigration considering the context of recent events. The migrant crisis in Europe in 2015 left its mark on European countries, as the number of refugees and third-country nationals experienced a significant increase in all countries (Akgündüz, 2015).…”

Confronted with ageing and depopulation, Romania needs to identify the main factors that attract immigrant population. This paper tackles the matter of regional income disparities as a key factor for temporary immigration in Romania. The quantitative approach includes a spatial panel data analysis based on a dataset retrieved from the Romanian National Institute of Statistics and our data consists of 378 observations on 42 counties in Romania over a time span of nine years starting with the year 2012. Our findings suggest that temporary immigration in Romania is shaped by location, but does not follow the labour market characteristics. Higher salaries and job opportunities are not the main factors of attraction to temporary immigration and it does not seem to be influenced by regional disparities.

The paper analyzes the relationship between the total tax amount paid by the Romanian companies and several indicators of size, financial performance, and capital structure to identify whether there is an impact of these indicators on the tax potential and to assess the impact of the tax burden on the performance of companies as well. The total tax amount is viewed on the one hand as a tax burden when it is used as an independent variable, and as tax potential when it is used as a dependent variable. To assess these relationships, we applied cross-sectional regression models for each year of analysis, 2014-2018, using balance sheet data from the entire population of Romanian companies. In literature, is questioned only the relationship between tax burden and economic performance. Our study emphasizes the link between tax potential and some characteristics of the companies. We have identified, also, the determinants of return of equity in the case of Romanian companies. Overall, the data reveal major structural changes during the period of analysis. This movement did not affect the tax potential, but the performance of undertakings. Our findings show that it is necessary to rethink economic and tax policies.

Under the impact of unfavourable demographic developments, some existing imbalances on the Romanian labor market have worsened. Thus, in 2019 the labor force shortage was estimated to 300000 persons, while in the last ten years the number of vacancies has exceeded 60,000 places, more than double the level at the beginning of the period (2010). This phenomenon may have negative social and economic effects. In this context, the present paper aims at analysing the labor shortages in Romania, at identifying its main determinants and the most important social and economic consequences and recommends a series of measures to mitigate the negative effects of this phenomenon.
