The impact of government grants and subsidies in the Republic of Moldova on stimulating economic development

Abstract

In the context of modern economic challenges, grant and subsidy financing plays an increasingly important role in public interventions aimed at supporting productive sectors, increasing competitiveness, and attracting investments—especially in a landscape shaped by issues such as migration, limited opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the need to align with European standards. Grants and subsidies have become essential tools for stimulating sustainable development, supporting the business environment, and reducing regional disparities. In the Republic of Moldova, the efficient use of public funds is crucial to the process of European integration and strengthening economic resilience, thus justifying an in-depth analysis of how these resources are managed and capitalized upon.
