Publisher's Synopsis
Moldova, consistently ranked as one of the poorest countries in Europe, relies heavily on investment, foreign trade, and remittances for economic growth. Attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is critical to enhancing Moldova's economic competitiveness. Under Moldovan law, foreign companies enjoy treatment equal to local companies - also known as the national treatment. The Government of Moldova (GOM) views investment as vital for sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction. However, actual FDI is far below what Moldova needs to create jobs and promote economic growth.
