The first World Club Football Championship with the participation of the 32 strongest clubs in the world ended in the USA. The winner was England’s Chelsea, who defeated France’s PSG 3-0 in the final. Over the course of a month, 63 matches were played at 12 stadiums in 11 U.S. cities. While the controversy surrounding the tournament continues, the Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) is calculating the revenues… Which are impressive.
Starting from 2020, the Chisinau municipality has invested more than 180 million lei in projects for the development of kindergartens and schools in suburban settlements of the capital.

This week, gardeners in the south and center of Moldova started harvesting plums of the most widespread in the country early varieties – “Petestianca” and “Caciasca early”. The demand for fruits of the first harvest is high. According to the fruit market operators, the starting wholesale price is set in the range of 9-15 lei/kg. In retail stores, price tags for the first Moldovan plum, depending on its quality – caliber, density, stage of ripeness – are about 40-50 lei/kg.
The more humanity learns about the oceans, the more obvious it becomes how little we actually understand about them. For example, it is believed that there are actually three times as many marine species as we have already identified. This fact alone should make us stop treating the ocean as something self-evident.
Against the background of the general well-being of the financial sector, the decline in profitability of the insurance business in the first quarter of the year looks, at least, strange.

These are the latest NBS data for 2023, which represent the number of companies involved in accounting and legal consulting. But they reflect the general trend, because these services tend to correlate with each other.
As of January 1, 2026, a new law will come into force in the Republic of Moldova, which will allow individuals to engage in economic activities without the need to establish a legal entity.
The history of the construction and functioning of the Giurgiulesti International Free Port (GIFP) has been full of scandals and litigation from the very beginning. The authorities in Moldova change, the owners and “ultimate beneficiaries” succeed each other, and the fate of the port, which was once called almost the “golden gate” of Moldova, remains vague and unenviable.

After five months of methodical reduction, the official foreign exchange reserves in June were significantly replenished – by 221.49 million euros. The assistance from the EU has arrived. However, the size of the “piggy bank” (5,070.24 million euros) is not yet at the height it was at the beginning of the year (5,164.1 million euros). Although by generally accepted standards the reserves are quite sufficient to serve as a “safety cushion”. The debate – for what and for whom – is still raging.
The Alliance of Small and Medium Enterprises of Moldova (AIM) demands to regulate the event organization industry.
