Moody’s Agency upgrades Moldova’s rating to B2, highest level in last 25 years
Moody’s Ratings Agency has announced the upgrade of Moldova’s rating from B3 to B2, maintaining a stable outlook. This is the highest level in the last 25 years, meaning that Moldova is becoming increasingly attractive for investors.
"Moldova is receiving a clear signal of confidence from abroad. This is not a political opinion. It is an independent, technical assessment of how the state manages its economy and finances. Moldova is becoming more stable, more predictable and more respected," said Prime Minister Alexandru Munteanu.
The B2 rating shows that Moldova still faces economic and geopolitical challenges, but has proved a significantly improved capacity to manage financial, political and social risks. In concrete terms, this means better access to international financing, lower costs for external borrowing and increased attractiveness of the country for foreign investment and development projects.
"This development reflects the direction we are heading in: stronger institutions, real reforms, energy independence and clear steps toward the European Union. It is the result of coordinated work at the institutional level: when there is coherence, responsibility and accountable decision-making, the results start to be visible from the outside as well," Prime Minister Munteanu added.
Moody’s is one of the most important international rating agencies, assessing the financial risk of states and companies. Through its evaluations, the agency sets a global benchmark of confidence, directly influencing investment decisions and financing costs on international markets.
