Summary/Abstract: The financing of local communities is nowadays an important problem in our country. The new governments that have succeeded have tried to find solutions for the balance of poor counties budgets in the detriment of the regions that are ”good tax payers” to the national budget, creating dissatisfaction on the local level. The developed European countries have found other ways to solve those delicate problems. This paper presents some of these solutions, which, if adapted to the realities of the Romanian economy, can be applied with positive results.
