“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.

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.
