Compared to the first three months of the year, the amount of guarantees provided, subsidized loans, and investments attracted has increased significantly, indicating that more and more businesses are choosing to invest in development, modernization, and expansion. “The Credit Guarantee Fund remains one of the most important tools through which we support small and medium-sized enterprises’ access to financing and help stimulate investment in the economy of the Republic of Moldova,” said Vadim Indoytu, Deputy Director of ODA.
Thus, in the first half of 2026, the Credit Guarantee Fund attracted investments totaling more than 1.2 billion lei; loans totaling more than 855 million lei were granted, and financial guarantees totaling more than 347 million lei were issued, contributing to the development and modernization of the business environment in the Republic of Moldova.
