The means-tested social benefi ts provided in Romania are guaranteed minimum income, family support allowance, and heating aid. In this paper, we focus on the allocation of the guaranteed minimum income and their impact on the benefi ciaries. Using data from Family Household Budget Survey 2016 we describe the profi le of the benefi ciaries, and we analyze the extent to which guaranteed minimum income benefi ciaries continue to be in situations such as severe material deprivation, and relative poverty after social transfers. The results show that most benefi ciaries are in severe material deprivation, with more than half of them deprived of food and new clothes. Also, the guaranteed minimum income manages to lift only 2% out of relative monetary poverty. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
