“e-Petitions” will make it easier to file complaints

In Moldova, a platform “e-Petitions” is being created to simplify the submission of complaints about the quality of goods and services and to eliminate confusion about the state agencies responsible for working with consumers. Today, petitions are sent to several government agencies. With the help of a single window and special filters, the system will automatically redirect complaints about food, non-food products or services to the responsible body. The platform will reduce the response time, giving citizens the opportunity to track in real time the status of their complaints.

Moldova is one of the most fragmented countries in Europe

In Moldova, one mayor’s office has, on average, about 2,700 inhabitants. This is 18 times less than, for example, in Latvia, with which Moldova is comparable in terms of territory and population. The density of mayoralties makes Moldova one of the most fragmented in Europe: there are 27 mayoralties per 1,000 km², while in Georgia there are almost 30 times fewer.

Moldova plans to gain 3.3 billion lei by abolishing tax exemptions for left-bank enterprises

The abolition of VAT and excise tax exemptions for enterprises on the left bank of the Dniester will bring more than 3.3 billion lei in additional revenues to the Moldovan budget.

The wisdom of Europe’s “great surrender”

U.S. President Donald Trump’s “reciprocal” tariffs, first imposed last April and continually modified since then, have failed to start a global trade war. Instead of retaliating against the US, much of the world effectively capitulated. This response was often seen as political weakness, especially in Europe. However, it was based on sound economic logic.

Investor without status: Why a residence permit in Moldova does not attract capital

Against the backdrop of slowing economic growth, a lack of long-term capital and intense competition for investment between countries in the region, Moldova clearly needs new sources of capital inflows into the real economy. One potentially effective instrument is the investment residence permit.

The end of the sweet “sugar era”

The sugar market is not about “sweetness”, but about economy in its purest form: excess supply, rising costs and managerial mistakes are instantly converted into price. That is why there is always a lot of information noise around sugar – slogans “let’s provide the market with our own”, “the market needs protection”, “importers are enemies”. But the noise does not change the main thing: the market does not punish imports – the market punishes inefficiency. And today this is evident all over Europe.

Beauty direction strengthens the financial model of fashion brands

The global fashion industry is going through a period of slowdown. According to the forecasts of consulting companies, growth in the fashion segment remains unstable and low. Against this background, the beauty market shows the opposite dynamics. According to analysts’ estimates, the global beauty market has already reached about 450 billion dollars, and its average annual growth until 2030 may be about 5%. This is why many fashion companies are actively developing the production of cosmetics and perfumes, considering this segment as an additional source of income.

Sustainable urban water supply: How South Korea is turning rain into a resource

In South Korea, innovation in rainwater management has reached a new level: instead of draining into storm water channels and polluting rivers, cities are using a system that turns the streets into a kind of giant sponge. Hidden beneath the asphalt are huge underground reservoirs that accumulate every drop of rain and allow it to be used as efficiently as possible.
