Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses key findings of the Second Review Under the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility (PRGF). Program performance has been generally satisfactory. The quantitative performance criteria were observed, as was most of the structural conditionality. One structural performance criterion was missed at end-December: the increase in tariffs for district heat and water was briefly delayed in Chisinau. IMF staff supports completion of the review and granting a waiver for nonobservance of the structural performance criterion. The authorities’ commitment to implement supplementary measures provides assurance that the program’s objectives remain attainable.

This book was released on 2017-05-01 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Economic Development Document highlights the Moldova 2020 National Development Strategy focus on producing a social and economic impact on various development priorities. Poverty reduction has progressed significantly during the past eight years: the national poverty rate decreased from 26.4 percent in 2008 to 9.6 percent in 2015. Remittances by emigrants and higher agricultural income, salaries, and social benefits were the major drivers of poverty reduction. The means-tested social assistance program had a significant impact. This social aid has proved to be the most efficient social protection against poverty; however, social support programs that are not means tested are ineffective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The progress made by Moldova toward achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) has not been uniform since 2007. Domestic economic and political crises are likely to undermine the achievement of several MDG targets set for 2010 and 2015. The goals were to reduce extreme poverty and hunger, achieve universal access to general secondary education, promote gender equality and empower woman, and so on. After growing dramatically in 1998–1999, poverty in Moldova began to decline in 2000. Addressing the environmental challenges and risks is imperative for Moldova.

Download or read book Moldova poverty Assessment written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The poverty of individuals and households in Moldova have mirrored the causes of the overall slowdown in the economy. Many enterprises found that the post-Soviet economic structure resulted in a vast increase in the ratio of their input prices to the market price of their output." Moldova is having an arduous transition from being a centrally-planned economy to one that is guided by market signals. This and the regional crisis in 1998 have exacerbated poverty and inequality levels in Moldova. This report provides a detailed analysis of the situation regarding living standards in the country and provides a framework for policy for the Government's emerging social assistance program. It examines the composition and distribution of poverty in Moldova, how income and price shocks have affected the lives of the poor, and the role of the Moldovan state in easing poverty. It concentrates on analyzing the results for the Right Bank of Moldova, so that any references to Moldova imply the Right Bank. The report will interest members of the Moldovan government, Bank staff, and anyone studying Eastern Europe in general and Moldova in particular.
Download or read book Evaluation of FAO s contribution to the Republic of Moldova 2016 2019 written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2021-07-22 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Half of the Moldovan population lives in rural areas. However, the rural employment rate is only 39 percent. Income from agricultural activities is low compared to other sectors of the economy. This evaluation seeks to contribute to organization-wide learning by drawing lessons and making recommendations that will be useful for FAO’s future engagement in Moldova. FAO provided highly specialized technical expertise to formulate strategies, policies and frameworks, and offer innovative approaches and solutions. Likewise, the evaluation found evidence of results leading to livelihood improvements, empowerment, and adoption of more sustainable practices and technologies. Nevertheless, FAO should further strive to support the transformation to more efficient, inclusive, resilient and sustainable agrifood systems for better production, better nutrition, a better environment and a better life, leaving no one behind. In doing so, FAO should use the knowledge generated to refine programmes in consultation with key partners towards effective and sustainable results.

Download or read book Republic of Moldova written by International Monetary Fund. Monetary and Capital Markets Department and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-02-29 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moldova has made some important advances since the 2008 FSAP Update. On the positive side, inflation has been brought down to single digits, the payment system has been upgraded, and important enhancements have been made to financial sector regulation and supervision. However, risks to banking sector stability have become severe. Large credit concentration and concealed connected lending, questionable cross-border exposures, and important data gaps mean that regulatory data likely significantly understate the system’s vulnerability. Non-transparent ownership, weak governance, connected lending and weaknesses in regulatory powers and enforcement further exacerbate these risks and could limit the scope for an effective policy response to shocks. Governance structures, internal oversight processes, and risk management practices are poorly developed. In some cases, cross-border exposures are substantial and the pattern of some (particularly cross-border) financial transactions suggest a serious risk of money laundering.

Download or read book Moldova written by World Bank and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moldova is having an arduous transition from being a centrally-planned economy to one that is guided by market signals, and this has contributed to poverty. Its agriculture-dominated economy is handicapped by the loss of its traditional markets and the slow restructuring of its enterprises. As a result, the economy has been shrinking since independence. This report aims to provide a detailed analysis of the situation regarding living standards in the country, and provide a framework for policy for the Government's emerging social assistance program. Chapter 1 examines the composition and distribution of poverty in Moldova. Chapter 2 looks at how income and price shocks have affected the lives of the poor - and motivates the need for employment-generating growth, especially in agriculture, as the only sure way out of poverty for most Moldovans. Chapter 3 discusses the role of the Moldovan state in easing poverty, and proposes a broad strategy to reform social assistance and social sector reform that best uses the limited Government resources. In its efforts to directly alleviate poverty, the Moldovan Government has to overcome three mutually reinforcing challenges: the population's high expectations for broad and effective interventions, its own lack of fiscal resources, and the technical difficulties in finding effective targeting mechanisms for Moldova's shallow poverty.
