The MoF team has succeeded to issue for the first time a 7-year government bond in the domestic market. The success is significant and against the odds of the unfolding COVID-19 crisis and other current difficulties. It is also a reflection of the MoF commitment to continue developing the domestic market for government securities and extend the maturity profile of overall government debt denominated in MDL. The success also marks the beginning of a renewed channel of communication between the MoF and the Primary Dealer banks of Moldova, geared towards the common goal of developing the Moldovan capital market. Our team is proud to have assisted the MoF in this process which is an essential element towards sustainable government financing as well as economic development.
From 30 March to 8 April 2021 the Project delivered online the first two cycles of the newly designed training course on ‘Costing of Public Investment Projects’ to officials of Moldovan central public authorities and the Ministry of Finance.
