A delegation from the National Bank of Moldova (NBM), led by the NBM Governor, Ms. Anca Dragu, is participating in the World Money Fair, the leading international event dedicated to numismatics, coin minting technologies, and the exchange of best practices between central banks and the industry, held in Berlin, Germany.
NBM's participation in this international forum aims to strengthen professional dialogue with similar institutions from around the world, share experiences regarding the issuance of monetary and commemorative coins, and familiarise participants with current trends in coin production, security, and technological innovation.
“Such interactions directly contribute to strengthening institutional expertise and aligning the National Bank of Moldova with international standards and practices in the monetary field. Dialogue with central banks and relevant institutions from around the world enables us to draw on valuable experiences and enhance our capacities. The NBM consistently promotes the numismatic dimension through the annual issuance of commemorative and jubilee coin series, reflecting the identity, history, and values of the Republic of Moldova. In this anniversary year, marking 35 years since the foundation of the National Bank, these efforts take on a special significance and reaffirm our commitment to professionalism, openness, and international cooperation,” emphasised Ms. Anca Dragu.
The event's agenda includes bilateral meetings and discussions with representatives from central banks and specialised institutions, focusing on deepening technical dialogue and exploring modern approaches to coin issuance and cash management.
The NBM delegation also includes Deputy Governor Constantin Șchendra, who oversees coin issuance, including the development of commemorative and jubilee coin series.
The “World Money Fair” event annually brings together central banks, national mints, financial institutions, experts, and relevant actors from over 50 countries, serving as a reference platform for cooperation and institutional dialogue in the fields of monetary policy and numismatics.
