Moldova will receive a loan of €83.3 million and a grant of $8 million from the World Bank to support economic opportunities and climate transition
This is provided for in two agreements signed by our country with the International Development Association and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, members of the World Bank Group, which were ratified by the Moldovan Parliament. In particular, the International Development Association will provide a €46.3 million loan for budget support. The money will be paid in a single tranche, and the loan will be repayable over 25 years, including a five-year grace period. At the same time, the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development will provide a loan of €37 million and a grant of $8 million. The loan will be repayable over 30 years, including a five-year grace period. Both loans are subject to the fulfillment of 11 conditions aimed at improving the competitiveness of the private sector, improving employment opportunities and access to quality education, as well as strengthening energy security and promoting climate-smart agriculture. The funds are earmarked for the “Moldova Supporting Economic Opportunities and Climate Transition DPO” program. Since Moldova joined the World Bank in 1992, over $2.3 billion has been allocated to more than 70 operations in our country. Current areas of support include the energy sector, regulatory reform and business development, land registration and valuation, education, roads, health and social services, agriculture, water supply, and sanitation. // 11.07.2025 — InfoMarket.
