Hiking demand and financial constraints threaten infrastructure development by 2030 aa‚¬a€œ PwC survey

Rising demand, constrained financial resources and existing bottlenecks in supply as well as the need for efficient demand management are challenges transport infrastructure operators will be facing in the next 20 years. These are the headline findings from the second report in PricewaterhouseCoopers “Transportation & Logistics 2030” series.

“In what concerns Romania, where the need for developing infrastructure projects is stringent, the Romanian state should prepare a long term investment strategy. Even in the context of the current budgetary constrains, Romania must allocate consistent sums of money for the development of the transport infrastructure so as to maximize its potential to become a logistics hub of CEE, potential based on the proximity of the developed markets of Central Europe and the Black Sea access through the Constanta harbour,” said Daniel Anghel, partner Indirect Taxation, PwC Romania.

According to him, also the granting of certain import incentives, such as import VAT deferment, would eliminate the cost of pre-financing VAT for companies, and would increase the number of transactions in the harbour.
