# Moldova tightens anti-corruption grip: Wealth declaration net widens

Moldova's fight against corruption takes a step forward with an expanded list of public officials required to file wealth declarations.

Proposed by Action and Solidarity Party member Lilian Carp, the amendment now compels more individuals to disclose their assets, aiming to tackle *"unjustified enrichment and conflicts of interest,"* as Carp declared, the Moldovan Legislature has reported.

Previously exempt groups now fall under the new regulations, including:

* **State and municipal enterprise heads**, ensuring transparency in entities with significant public ownership.
* **Agency heads**, such as those at the State Agency for Public Services, previously outside the reporting framework.
* **Political party leaders**, recognizing their access to state funding and potential vulnerability to conflicts of interest.

This move aligns with Moldova's ongoing efforts to strengthen its anti-corruption measures, a crucial aspect of its EU integration aspirations. However, it remains to be seen how effectively the expanded declaration requirements will be implemented and enforced.
