For Moldova, 2024 will be marked by significant progress in digitization and financial infrastructure, from which citizens will benefit – the NBM
This was stated by Anca Dragu, Governor of the National Bank of Moldova (NBM), in her congratulatory message on the occasion of the winter holidays. According to her, looking back, we can say that 2024 was a historic year for Moldova. The European Union opened wide its doors for accession and the National Bank played an active role in this process. “Thanks to the constant dialogue and strategic reforms, we have strengthened relations with external partners, enhancing Moldova's position in the world,” Anca Dragu said. She mentioned that in 2024, Chisinau became a real international financial center, hosting the first persons at the IMF and WB Constituency meeting. “This event showed that Moldova is ready to become part of the European family, to accept its values: peace, solidarity and human dignity. Our success is not only about big events. In everyday life, progress is evident: every 5th active person in Moldova uses instant payments through the MIA system, which makes every transaction faster, safer and easier. At the same time, membership in SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) is steadily moving forward. Thus, 2024 is marked by significant progress in digitization and financial infrastructure, from which citizens will directly benefit,” said the head of the National Bank. She emphasized that these achievements are complemented by the NBM's actions to maintain the stability of the national currency and to manage inflation. In addition to the figures, these measures reflect the desire to strengthen confidence in the country's economy. “All this would not have been possible without teamwork - a close partnership between institutions and citizens. Together, we managed to overcome difficulties and take concrete steps towards the goal of creating a European Moldova,” Anca Dragu said. //26.12.2024 - InfoMarket.
