The National Bank of Moldova published a readout of Governor Anca Dragu's participation in the "Corporate Governance Practices and Challenges" event, part of Chisinau Business School initiatives on corporate governance and board-level leadership. In her remarks, she presented corporate governance as a core determinant of how institutions make decisions, manage risks, assume responsibility and build trust, adding that governance quality in the financial sector has direct implications for financial stability, depositor protection and public confidence. Dragu focused on current governance challenges and the role of governing bodies in reinforcing institutional cultures based on accountability, transparency and sustainability. She highlighted the importance of professionalism, decision-making independence and continuous education for those involved in management and oversight, particularly in an environment marked by volatility, rapid digitalisation, emerging risks and stricter compliance requirements. The release also states that the National Bank promotes high standards of governance, transparency, integrity and accountability in line with European practices and its objective of strengthening the financial sector's resilience.
