International Stock Exchange of Moldova prepares for upcoming transactions

The International Stock Exchange of Moldova is preparing to launch trading operations, with the first transactions expected by the end of this year or early 2027. While the platform has been officially launched, the buying and selling of shares and bonds have not yet commenced.

Currently, the exchange is in the process of admitting brokers to connect their systems to the platform. Three Moldovan brokers are in advanced stages of preparation, and approximately 12 companies have expressed interest in participating. The exchange aims to provide a source of additional financing for Moldovan enterprises, particularly for large-scale development projects.

Local authorities are expected to be among the first issuers, utilizing municipal bonds to fund local projects. Additionally, the exchange is developing a dedicated program to attract investment from the Moldovan diaspora to help mobilize new funding sources for the national economy.
