In Moldova, private investment in the first quarter of 2024 increased by 12%.
This was announced by the Minister of Economic Development and Digitalization Dumitru Alaiba, without giving a specific indicator, noting only that the authorities will continue to work to maintain this positive trend. According to him, undoubtedly, the reforms have begun to bear fruit. Dumitru Alaiba pointed out that as a result of the income tax reform, more than 1.4 billion lei remained in the accounts of companies. In particular, the authorities decided to levy tax only on income distributed in the form of dividends. “Thanks to this alone, more than 1.4 billion lei of liquidity remained in the companies’ accounts - money that was at least partially invested,” the minister noted. According to him, in addition, investments worth about 2 billion lei were allocated within the framework of the “373” program. The authorities also continue large-scale efforts to reduce bureaucracy and digitalization, which save entrepreneurs more than a billion lei per year. “Of course, the courage and determination of our entrepreneurs cannot be underestimated. They are the basis of a strong economy. We are not relaxing. We don't brag too much. We continue to work to support entrepreneurs and provide them with the necessary conditions for business development,” Dumitru Alaiba wrote on his page on the social network. // 04.07.2024 — InfoMarket.
