Moldova, IMF reach agreement on new three-year cooperation programme
Moldova and the IMF mission have reached a staff-level agreement on a new programme, supported by the Policy Coordination Instrument (PCI), for a period of three years. The decision was announced following a visit to Chisinau by the IMF expert team, led by Alina Iancu, during May 7-20, 2026.
The programme will support policies and reforms in Moldova, contribute to the country’s macroeconomic stability and help advance Moldova’s strategic goal of progressing on its European Union accession agenda.
Prime Minister Alexandru Munteanu said that the agreement confirmed a shared vision between Moldova and the IMF on the country’s economic direction: “The staff-level agreement is not a mere formality, but the result of a consolidated effort. For Moldova, this is a clear signal that international partners appreciate the professionalism of the government team and the fact that our country is moving in the right direction, at a good pace, even in a complex regional and international context.”
The reforms included in the programme will focus on more efficient management of public finances through better budget planning, responsible management of liquidity and public debt, as well as a clearer assessment of risks generated by state-owned enterprises. At the same time, the programme will support the protection of public funds and the improvement of economic data used in policymaking.
The Policy Coordination Instrument (PCI) entails enhanced dialogue between the IMF and member states and confirms the Fund’s support for the policies promoted by the authorities, contributing to strengthening external partners’ confidence and mobilizing financing from other sources.
