A delegation of the National Bank of Moldova (BNM), led by Governor Anca Dragu, has had a string of meetings with high-ranking officials from the World Bank Group.

Our joint efforts mean safe, accessible and convenient financial services for citizens,” said Anca Dragu.

The official BNM delegation, led by Governor Anca Dragu, is participating in the spring meetings of the World Bank Group and the IMF, held in Washington on April 21-26, 2025. The visit's agenda includes meetings with high-level representatives on behalf of IMF, WBG, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and other international institutions and organizations.
