The parties discussed the current regional and international context, as well as how developments on the world stage affect the course of events on both banks of the Prut. Investors outlined the challenges they are currently facing. Prime Minister told investors about the government's short-, medium- and long-term vision for overcoming all crises, creating favorable conditions for doing business and increasing opportunities for attracting investment in Moldova. "Along with my colleagues in the government we have decided to dedicate September to business, to ensure that jobs are preserved and increased and to lay a solid foundation for recovery and economic growth. I want us to focus on developing solutions that support those who seek to do business in our country, and to remember the actions the government has already taken to overcome economic and social difficulties during this period. I want us, in 3-4 years, to look back and say that the decisions taken now were beneficial to our economy, which is firmly anchored in the European space," Prime Minister said. Presently, there are 1562 companies with Romanian capital registered in Moldova. Romania is the 2nd biggest investor in Moldova in terms of capital invested, with an amount of 6 billion lei. // 09.09.2022 – InfoMarket
