Moldova's National Commission for Financial Markets hosted experts from the United Nations Development Programme’s Istanbul International Center for Private Sector in Development (IICPSD) as part of a broader mission to create an Investment Map aligned to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for Moldova. The collaboration focuses on validating initial findings and collecting additional information to improve the map and turn it into a practical tool for investors. The SDG Investment Map is intended to provide detailed information on investment opportunities and enabling conditions for sustainable development in Moldova, including identified opportunity areas and relevant market data such as development impact and financial prospects. The initiative is also framed as supporting the development of instruments such as green and social bonds to help attract international capital, with the CNPF indicating it will contribute capital market expertise; the CNPF Chair also referenced the authority’s capital market development strategy, which includes mechanisms and instruments aimed at supporting small and medium-sized enterprises. The IICPSD expert mission in Chisinau runs from 21 to 25 July and includes meetings with specialists from multiple public institutions and authorities.
