IMF Executive Board Concludes Third Review Under the Extended Credit Facility and Extended Fund Facility Arrangements for the Republic of Moldova

April 26, 2023
Moldova’s economy contracted sharply in 2022, reflecting spillovers from the war; a modest recovery is expected in 2023. Inflation remains high but continues to decline rapidly. Fiscal policies are focusing on mitigating the impacts of the overlapping crises and supporting economic recovery. Risks to the energy sector have abated for now, reflecting authorities’ prudent use of contingency plans. Nevertheless, the outlook remains subject to extreme uncertainty, primarily due to risks of further escalation of the war. Moldova’s program implementation remains strong despite this challenging environment, notably with recent completion of important reforms, which can help promote the integrity, capacity, and independence of key anti-corruption institutions and enhance enforcement of the anti-corruption legal framework.

Tuvalu: Staff Concluding Statement of the 2023 Article IV Mission

April 25, 2023
A successful vaccination strategy allowed Tuvalu to lift COVID containment measures at the end of 2022, but the economic cost of the pandemic has been significant. Real GDP growth was -4.3 percent in 2020, with at-the-border containment measures leading to delays in much-needed infrastructure projects. Activity has not fully recovered to its pre-pandemic level, with growth in 2021 at 1.8 percent and estimated at 0.7 percent for 2022. Headline inflation rose to 11.5 percent in 2022 in the context of higher global inflationary pressures, an increase in transportation costs around the world, and the increase in global food prices in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The external position temporarily strengthened as COVID containment measures and their impact on import-intensive infrastructure projects led to a sharp increase in the current account balance, implying that its level for 2022 was broadly in line with fundamentals and desirable policy settings.
