Portfólió reported that there are several points in the report regarding this matter. If these are taken seriously, Hungary would not have the opportunity to introduce the Euro as these factors serve as drawbacks to our economy.

According to many experts, to keep Hungary’s development and make sure it reaches the same level as highly-developed countries, a well-developed Eurozone needs to be introduced in the country as soon as possible.

György Matolcsy, the director of the Central Bank of Hungary, emphasised that by joining the European Union, Hungary also took on the responsibility to introduce its currency in the country as soon as possible. Matolcsy added that the introduction is not the finish line for the country but the start for a more efficient and quicker economic development for the nation.
