When economists talk about “weak states,” they usually mean central government – its inability to collect taxes, enforce contracts, and produce public goods.
In an interview with our portal, entrepreneur Mircea Baciu spoke about a real opportunity that would allow Moldova to significantly increase its exports – through the use of international online trading platforms.
From Chisinau to Tirana, Sofia to Skopje, the cultures are different, the houses are different, but the challenges associated with a renovation project remain the same: rising material prices, limited access to flexible financing and the need to effectively manage the entire process. iute Group, an international financial group with a presence in Albania, Bulgaria, Northern Macedonia and the Republic of Moldova, is simultaneously launching in all four markets the “Home & Renovation” campaign, a regional campaign based on shared reality and offering a real solution to one of the most important financial issues in a client’s life: home renovation.
For some Moldovan farmers, the sowing campaign-2026 is just beginning. And for Moldovan sugar beet growers, it should have already ended. But the sowing of sugar beet has been delayed. Visions for its harvest and domestic sugar production are vague. The situation with sugar import is close to scandalous. But let’s talk about everything in order.
The Moldovan housing market is more honest than any official report. It does not lie, flatter or sympathize. It simply shows what it is. The problem is that nobody wants to look into this mirror.
Adidas Factory Store opens in Port Mall in Chisinau: this is an event not only for sports retail, but also for the entire retail industry of the country. This is not just the launch of a new outlet, but the introduction of a fundamentally different retail model, which has not been used in Moldova before.
The war in Iran has many facets. The world economy is cracking at the seams due to rising prices for energy, fertilizers, food – and on down the chain.
As of April 1, 2026, payments under the state program “Prima Casă” have been suspended. Finance Minister Adrian Havrilice openly stated that the program in its current form is not the best solution. He explained this by the pressure that the program exerts on the real estate market and on the state budget, from which about 150 million lei is allocated annually to support the beneficiaries.
Experts discussed with government and business representatives the labor market forecast for 2026, noting the gap between qualifications and employer demand, which is increasingly shifting towards low-skilled labor.
Does what is happening in the Persian Gulf directly concern Moldova? Many will answer: of course it does! And they will point to the panels of gas stations. Or the electricity bills. And they will be right.
Recently, the media has been flooded with stories about the real estate market – cautious, with “correction, not a disaster” conclusions.
Almost a month and a half after the escalation of the conflict in Iran, which significantly affected the world energy markets, the Moldovan Parliament held perhaps the first substantive discussion on the impact of the global oil crisis and the situation on the domestic fuel market. The Commission for Economy, Budget and Finance heard representatives of the relevant ministries and agencies on stabilizing the fuel market and supporting other sectors of the economy.
On April 8, the government presented the concept of local self-government reform. The administrative-territorial reform planned by the authorities is criticized both by independent analysts and opposition politicians, as well as by many mayors – both its concept and methods of implementation.
The Council of Europe’s Group of States against Corruption (GRECO) has published the fifth report on Moldova’s implementation of the anti-corruption recommendations of the fifth round of assessment. The document deals with the prevention of corruption at the highest level of the executive branch and in law enforcement agencies – precisely where trust in the state and its institutions is formed.
U.S. President Trump says Iran has proposed a “workable” peace plan that could help end the fighting. The talks will be held April 10 in Islamabad, Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said.
There are more than 165 thousand people with disabilities in Moldova, which is about the same as one Gagauzia or half of Transnistria. And the main problem for them is not the meager payments (although this is also a significant factor), but the basic accessibility. Transportation, infrastructure, education are still inaccessible for a significant part of these people.
The necessity of attracting foreign investments into the Moldovan economy is not disputed by anyone. However, the country’s authorities do not have a clear understanding of how to actually do it, what levers and mechanisms to use. One of the effective, and at the same time quite accessible and efficient mechanisms was proposed by a well-known entrepreneur Mircea Baciu. What exactly we are talking about – in his interview with curentul.md.
Exactly 20 years ago, Russia first imposed an embargo on Moldovan wines. Direct losses of winemakers are estimated at $300 to $500 million.
The European Central Bank (ECB) kept rates unchanged, warning that tensions in the Middle East and risks in the oil market could stoke inflation. The baseline forecast is for 2.6% in 2026, but with energy shocks, inflation could rise to 3.5-4.4% depending on the duration of supply disruptions.
The European e-cigarette market is now at the peak of growth, but almost half of the turnover is out of state control. This is the conclusion reached by the authors of a new international study on the structure of the illegal vape market in Europe, presented at a press conference by experts from Fraunhofer IIS and MRU GmbH (Germany).
