Political stability in Bulgaria continues to be crucial for the adoption of the euro in 2026, writes ING think, the analytical unit of ING bank. The analysis is titled “Monitoring Bulgaria: Euro adoption is looming, but not yet a fact,” BTA reported.

Experts see new uncertainties related to potential changes in the structure of the Bulgarian parliament after the Constitutional Court’s decision. But if stability is maintained, they predict success.

Short-term inflation growth could become a more significant problem, potentially shifting the solution from technical to more political, the analysis notes. The forecast is for economic growth in 2025 to reach 2.6%, and annual inflation to be 4.6%.
