According to the regulator, the new requirements will affect individuals and legal entities—residents of Moldova—who receive or provide external loans and credits. The need to introduce these requirements stems from the liberalization of the capital account and the elimination of notification and authorization procedures for external financial obligations. Instead, the National Bank plans to establish a statistical reporting mechanism to systematically collect data on external loans and credits, track capital flows, and monitor the country's international investment position. The information obtained will be used to compile statistics on Moldova's external debt, balance of payments, and international investment position. The draft is also intended to align national regulations with international practices and the country's obligations under its EU accession process and the National Accession Program for 2025–2029. Suggestions and recommendations regarding the future regulation are being accepted until November 3. // 19.10.2026 — InfoMarket.
