However, compared with the results obtained in the case of romania, we note, for the EU, the existence of acorrelation in the opposite direction of the variation of the inflation rate with the change in bank NPLs ratio, which can be put down to the propagation of some characteristic effects of globalization, such as the one generated by the EUR/RON exchange rate reflected in inflation. In contrast, we find that, in the EU case, as in romania's one, it is confirmed the rational inverse linkage between the real GDP growth rate and the change in the unemployment rate,but the letter evolved under the major influence of the transfer of workers from Romania to other countries, more than in the opposite direction, also as a consequence of globalization.
