The National Bank of Moldova has released a new explanatory video aimed at presenting, in plain terms, how monetary policy affects citizens’ daily lives and why adopting the monetary policy practices used by European Union central banks matters in Moldova’s context. The video links the take-up of EU rules and best-practice monetary policy intervention tools to the central bank’s ability to respond quickly to economic challenges and protect purchasing power. It also frames inflation control and financial stability as factors that influence everyday household and business decisions, including spending, saving and longer-term planning, and notes that a stable economy supports the safety of citizens’ savings and predictability for businesses. In the context of Moldova’s EU accession process, the release highlights that the National Bank of Moldova coordinates negotiations with the EU on three chapters: free movement of capital, financial services, and economic and monetary policy.
