Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of public debt on the economic growth, government expenditures and revenues in Romania over the period 1995-2020. The estimation is performed using simple Vector Autoregressive model. The results indicate that the economy is discouraged for the first period, starting to grow after.

The significance of the impact is similar on the aggregate fiscal and budget variables and more important compared to the one on the economic growth.
