At a European Business Association forum on Moldova’s EU integration outlook, National Bank of Moldova First Deputy Governor Petru Rotaru described European integration as a strategic priority and pointed to continued financial stability, including a National Bank of Moldova financial stress index below the critical threshold. Discussions at the event covered Moldova’s macroeconomic, financial and energy perspectives in the context of the integration process. Rotaru linked EU support, the economy’s resilience and ongoing reforms to stronger financial stability and higher investment, and said the banking sector has adequate capitalisation and sufficient liquidity to support lending. The forum was attended by EU Ambassador to Moldova Janis Mazeiks and European Parliament delegation chair for relations with Moldova Siegfried Mureșan.
