At a United Nations Development Programme Debt4SDGs workshop on sustainable finance and green bonds, Moldova's Ministry of Finance said it sees scope to diversify financing instruments for both the state and businesses, including by exploring green, social and Sustainable Development Goal-linked bonds. In remarks at the event, State Secretary Ion Gumene linked any future initiative to fiscal sustainability, transparency and economic efficiency. The workshop reviewed international practice on green bonds and the Sustainable Development Goals, opportunities to develop sustainable finance instruments in Moldova, capital market development, and financing for climate resilience and the energy transition. Gumene also said the ministry treats development of the government securities market as a strategic priority for public debt management and pointed to steps already taken to strengthen that market, including greater issuance transparency, the launch of the eVMS.md platform, and cooperation with rating agencies. The ministry said it will continue to support capital market development and the promotion of modern financing instruments aimed at Moldova's economic and sustainable development.
