The data are contained in the study “4.0: Impact of Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) on the Economy of the Republic of Moldova”, presented by the Investment Agency of Moldova together with the Association of Foreign Investors.
The document emphasizes the contribution of foreign capital to the country’s competitiveness and European integration. And the amount of foreign investments attracted indicates the continued confidence of investors in the local market.
The study shows that companies with foreign capital represent only 5.7% of all enterprises, but generate 13.7% of the total number of jobs and 23.2% of the national turnover. Their productivity is about 74% higher than that of domestic firms. In addition, these companies offer average monthly wages almost 93% higher than the local private sector average.
The European Union remains the main source of foreign investment for Moldova, with 86% of foreign capital coming from EU member states. The data confirm Moldova’s strategic orientation towards integration into EU value chains.
The authors emphasize the need for consistent government policies to increase business predictability, improve infrastructure and support high value-added projects.
“Foreign direct investment remains the most important pillar for increasing competitiveness and strengthening Moldova’s position on the European market,” conclude the authors of the report.
