President of the EBRD is coming to the Republic of Moldova
The president of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), Odile Renaud-Basso, is coming to the Republic of Moldova next week. She will be accompanied by the EBRD's Managing Director for Eastern Europe and the Caucasus, Matteo Patrone. They have scheduled meetings with the authorities of the Republic of Moldova, businessmen, representatives of financial organizations and civil society.
The visit takes place after a year of record investments by the EBRD in our country, which supported the efforts of the Republic of Moldova to protect its economy against the shock caused by Russia's war in Ukraine, reads the press release issued by the institution.
During her stay, a new agreement could be signed with one of the partner banks of the EBRD.
We remind that the EBRD is the largest institutional investor in the Republic of Moldova, which is committed to supporting the government in promoting reforms currently focused on the transparency of the banking sector, improving the business environment and increasing the energy security of our country, a candidate for the EU and neighboring Ukraine.
The EBRD has invested a total of over 2 billion euros through 166 projects. The record sum of 524 million euros was allocated last year to support the economy of the Republic of Moldova against the shocks caused by the war in Ukraine. This exceeded five times the annual average of EBRD investments in our country.
