Issue No. 6 of Economic Reality, the publication of the Independent Think Tank “Expert-Grup”, examines the state of the Moldovan economy in the third quarter of the year. It points to a slowdown in several areas and assesses the potential macroeconomic risks facing the country.

According to the issue, the Moldovan economy in the third quarter was marked by a “slackening” in several spheres. The growth rates of industrial output and of investment activity both declined.

Together with higher interest rates on bank loans, this will have a negative effect on further GDP growth, which stood at 5.4% in the first half of the year. Macroeconomic risks are further heightened by the global financial crisis, which is gradually turning into an economic crisis of worldwide proportions. The issue sets out the potential risks for the Moldovan economy.
