Automatically translated summary. The full article is available in Romanian.
National Bank of Moldova Governor Anca Dragu presented certificates to 24 young financial education ambassadors. They organised training sessions for their peers in towns and villages across Moldova, as part of the National Financial Education Campaign run by the National Bank in partnership with Independent Think Tank “Expert-Grup”.
The ambassadors trained almost 800 young people in their home localities, including Anenii Noi, Cahul, Chișinău, Orhei, Bălți and Soroca. The initiative promotes responsible financial behaviour and smart management of income and spending. It is supported by the USAID Moldova programme “Institutional and Structural Reforms in Moldova” (MISRA).
Eugen Ghilețchi of MISRA noted that fewer than half of Moldovans regularly use cards for payments and about 40% have no savings at all. Stas Madan of Expert-Grup said better financial knowledge means fewer people falling victim to scams and better financial decisions. The ambassadors were chosen from 203 applications and then trained to deliver the lessons nationwide. Participants stressed the importance of financial education for personal security and economic growth.
