Moldova expects to receive in early March another €168 million tranche from the EU under the Growth Plan, and the new tranche may amount to €145 million
As announced by Finance Minister Andrian Gavrilita, the necessary documents for receiving the €168 million tranche had been submitted by Moldova to the European Commission, and the main conditions for the disbursement of the money to our country had been fulfilled in the second half of last year. The authorities expect this tranche to arrive in early March. At the same time, the head of the Ministry of Finance specified that the new tranche under the Growth Plan is estimated at approximately €145 million and may be received by our country in mid-June, depending on the results achieved. At the same time, Andrian Gavrilita believes that the chances of this are very good. He previously noted that, as part of the Reform and Growth Facility, in June 2025, the European Union made preliminary payments totaling €270 million to Moldova, intended for the preparation and launch of priority reforms, and the country received the first tranche of €18.9 million in September 2025. The next tranche of €168 million is scheduled for the end of February – early March this year. The Minister of Finance recalled that the €1.9 billion Growth Plan for Moldova prepared by the European Union represents an important opportunity for our country, which will receive grants and technical assistance, as well as concessional loans with low interest rates and long repayment terms. These resources will be used for reforms and investments aimed at modernizing the economy, supporting the business environment, developing infrastructure, increasing energy efficiency, and improving public services. The growth plan supported by the European Union is the largest and most ambitious financial support package in Moldova's history, worth €1.9 billion. Approximately €1.5 billion of this amount is in the form of concessional loans with lower interest rates than general market conditions and favorable repayment terms (maturity of up to 40 years, including a grace period of up to 10 years). // 18.02.2026 — InfoMarket
