As the World Bank Group (WBG) is evolving, it remains a strategic partner for Romania in helping accelerate the pace and impact of the country's national development efforts while pursuing opportunities to contribute to the global development agenda. The Romania Country Partnership Framework (CPF) for FY25-29 aims to maximize these opportunities. The CPF (i) supports Romania in closing selected development gaps and disparities and strengthening institutions
(ii) enables the WBG to innovate and co-create solutions that employ instruments of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), International Finance Corporation (IFC), and Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) for a sophisticated high-income country (HIC) client that will generate globally replicable knowledge to help tackle national, regional, and worldwide global challenges
and (iii) leverages partnerships and operationalizes the One WBG Approach to amplify results. The CPF's overarching goal is to promote prosperity and address inequalities in a livable Romania. The program prioritizes three high-level outcomes (HLOs): (i) improved human capital outcomes
(ii) better jobs in a more competitive economy through unlocking private investment
and (iii) increased resilience and an accelerated green transition. The CPF maintains a transversal focus on enhancing institutions to serve all people and businesses.
