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. During these discussions, the sides addressed internal economic developments and the central bank's commitment to maintaining macroeconomic stability and taking measures to bring Moldova closer to European standards.

This will facilitate the identification of opportunities for reforming the sector, implementing international standards and strengthening the capacity to respond to economic challenges.

“We appreciate the mission of assistance of World Bank experts for the support provided in areas of major importance, such as the digital financial services sector, the financing framework, or bank resolution. 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.
