The 6,9% growth of the Moldovan economy ranked third place in Europe in 2010. This is a close market that had traditional exchanges with Romania. What are the opportunities and challenges for the two business communities?

Moldova is interested to learn from the Romanian experience towards the free market economy and integration to the European Union. The opportunities for foreign investors are related to the privatization of the telecom companies, banks and airport and also in the food industry.

According to the Romanian Chamber of Commerce there are around 2500 mixed companies with Romanian and Moldovan capital. This emphases the idea that despite the relatively cold political relations in the past, the economical opportunities are very attractive for the two communities.
