    (INCE, 2016) Perciun, Rodica; Popa, Viorica; Balan, Mariana
    Economic and political uncertainty in recent years has adversely affected the activity of Moldovan banks unfavoring the dynamics of the national economy. The 2015 year can be considered a "rigid" year for the Republic of Moldova, built by the liquidation of three financial institutions at the NBM decision (CB "Unibank" SA, CB "Banca Sociala " SA and BC "Banca de Economii" SA), and the tightening of the monetary policy. That has led to mistrust of the population in this sector, creating problems with bank loans and deteriorating of bank asset. However, commercial banks during 2015 remained sufficiently liquid and capitalized (exceptionis CB "Unibank" SA, CB "Banca Sociala" SA and BC "Banca de Economii" SA). This article aims to research the financial and banking sector from the Republic of Moldova in 2015 in terms of uncertainty. Therefore, the novelty of the article lies in the analysis of the banking sector from the Republic of Moldova under the main financial prudential indicators. The main research methods were: systemic analysis, synthesis, monographic, logic, etc. The main scientific results obtained in the article, as a conclusion of the research are the identification, analysis of the main activity of the banking sector and the proposed set of recommendations on strengthening the financial stability framework in the Republic of Moldova.

    Covid-19 and women migrant workers: impacts and implications
    (2021) Balan, Mariana
    Actuality: worldwide, international migration has significantly increased in recent decades. Thus, the stock of migrants increased from 173.59 million in 2000 to 271.64 million people in 2019 (of which 48% were women). About 74% of migrant women are in the service industry, which includes domestic work and, in many cases, at high risk of losing it. During the Covid-19 pandemic, mobility and travel restrictions endangered the income of migrant women, especially domestic workers. Purpose: analysis of the Covid-19 pandemic impact on migrant women, employed in various sectors of activity. A number of good practices are presented in terms of the level of social assistance and protection for migrant workers, including domestic workers who have lost their jobs. Methodology: descriptive statistical analysis (graphs, tables, calculation of averages and dispersions) was used mainly for visualizing and synthesizing information from a data set. Results: an analysis of the Covid-19 pandemic effects on migrant workers in health and social care institutions, those working in households, but also on those with precarious and informal jobs, or with irregular migration status. The analysis of the Covid19 pandemic impact on migrants has highlighted the fact that migrant workers, although occupying essential jobs in our societies, are often deprived of human rights and access to essential services. Actualitate: la nivel mondial, ȋn ultimele decenii a crescut semnificativ migrația internațională. Astfel, stocul de migranți a crescut de la 173,59 milioane persoane ȋn anul 2000 la 271,64 milioane persoane ȋn anul 2019 (din care 48% erau femei). Aproximativ 74% din femeile migrante sunt în industria serviciilor care include munca casnică și, în multe cazuri, cu risc ridicat de pierdere a acestuia. În timpul pandemiei de Covid-19, restricțiile de mobilitate și de călătorie au pus în pericol venitul femeilor migrante, în special al lucrătoarelor casnice. Scop: analiza impactului pandemiei COVID-19 asupra femeilor migrante, încadrate în diverse sectoare de activitate. Sunt prezentate o serie de bune practici în ceea ce priveşte nivelul de asistență și protecție socială pentru lucrătoarele migrante, inclusiv pentru lucrătoarele casnice care și-au pierdut locul de muncă. Metodologie: analiza statistică descriptivă (grafice, tabele, calcul de medii şi dispersii) a fost utilizată în special pentru vizualizarea şi sintetizarea informaţiilor desprinse dintr-un set de date. Rezultate: realizarea unei analize a efectelor pandemiei de Covid19 asupra lucrătoarelor migrante din instituțiile de sănătate și asistență socială, a celor care lucrează în gospodării, dar şi asupra celor cu locuri de muncă precare și informale, sau cu statut de migrație neregulată. Analiza impactului pandemiei de Covid-19 asupra migranţilor, a evdentiat faptul că, lucrătoarele migrante, deşi ocupă locuri de muncă esențiale în societățile noastre, totuși ele sunt, nu de puţine ori, private de drepturile omului și de accesul la servicii esențiale.

    The impact of recent crises on international migration
    (INCE, 2023) Balan, Mariana; Uzlau, Carmen
    International migration is an integral part of the global economy. Growing disparities in development, the segmentation of labour markets, the global jobs crisis revolutions in transportation and telecommunications, are some of the factors that have generated, worldwide, an unprecedented number of migrants (in 2020: almost 300 million, of which 169 million are migrant workers and who remitted over 702 billion USD). The economic-financial crisis and Covid-19 pandemic had a significant impact on migration patterns and processes around the world. Globally, there was a reduction in migration flows, which also led to a slowdown in the growth rate of remittances. Purpose: Comparative analysis of the effects of the 2008-2009 financial crisis and the Covid-9 pandemic on the size and structure of international migrant flows in major regions of the world, at EU level and in Romania. Method: The descriptive statistical analysis was used mainly for visualising and synthesising information deducted from data regarding the international migration. The classification analysis was used in defining a typology of the size and structure of migratory flows, and the factorial analysis was used in creating some indices to compare the effects of crises on the structure and size of migratory flows. Results: realising a comparative analysis of the economic and social effects of recent crises on the structure and size of migratory flows, both at the EU and national level.

    Provocările crizei actuale asupra pieţei forţei de muncă în regiunile de dezvoltare ale României
    (IEFS, 2011) Balan, Mariana
    Les effets de la crise financière, continue à se faire sentir dans l'économie mondiale. Même si le point minimum de cette crise semble avoir été atteint, il est probable que la reprise pourrait être plus longue, généralement caractérisés par une croissance économique inférieure à son potentiel et une diminution progressive du taux de chômage, au cours de plusieurs années. En Roumanie, le secteur privé s’est ajusté naturellement à cause de la contraction économique. En conséquence, le gouvernement roumain a adopté une série de mesures visant à maintenir/créer des emplois. Pour le secteur public, ont été adopté une série des mesures visant à réduire les salaires des employés de l’administration publique, mais la solution adoptée par les autorités pour réduire les revenues des employés du secteur public de 25% depuis Juin 2010, peut être considérée comme une mesure provisoire dont l'objectif est de réduire le nombre d'employés. Dans ce contexte, la combinaison des politiques économiques destinées à atténuer la crise économique et financière devra prendre en compte les particularités de l'économie roumaine. Le papier présente certains des défis de la crise actuelle sur le marché du travail en Roumanie et son analyse en 2010 dans les régions de développement de la Roumanie.

    Sistemele de avertizare timpurie şi stress-testele – tehnici complementare de estimare a stabilităţii financiare sistemice
    (INCE, 2015) Balan, Mariana; Perciun, Iulia; Perciun, Rodica
    Stabilitatea şi creşterea economică durabilă depinde, în mare măsură, de nivelul de evoluţie a economiei naţionale şi de stabilitatea sistemului financiar naţional. Stabilitatea financiară sistemică reprezintă o componentă esenţială în activitatea autorităţilor monetare, pentru menţinerea şi dezvoltarea continuă a sectorului bancar, considerat principalul responsabil de procesul de alocare eficientă a resurselor în economie. Monitorizarea eficientă este posibilă doar în condiţiile existenţei unor abilităţi de sinteză, analiză şi prognoză pentru interpretarea corectă a consecinţelor evoluţiei negative a unor factori micro- şi macroeconomici ce pot provoca: fluctuaţii nefavorabile ale principalilor indicatori economici, creşterea inflaţiei şi vulnerabilitatea sistemului bancar. Pentru a atinge acest obiectiv, autorităţile menţionate trebuie să posede un şir de tehnici de măsurare a stabilităţii financiare, de aceea, prin cercetare a fost realizată o sinteză succintă despre două tehnici importante pentru estimarea stabilităţii financiare sistemice.

    Vulnerabilities on the youth labour market at the level of development regions of Romania
    (INCE, 2022) Balan, Mariana
    The onset of the health crisis has found the young people's labour market still fragile after the economic and financial crisis triggered in 2008-2009. At country level, the unemployment rate among young people aged 15-24 years has seen significant variations as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, reaching 23.7% in the 4th quarter of 2021. As the pandemic has spread, the prevalence of the NEET status, inactivity in the labour market and informal work among young people have increased even more than unemployment among them. The economic and social consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic have been and still are significant for young people. The health crisis has been particularly serious for young people, causing disruptions in their education, training and on-the-job learning, but also the loss of jobs and incomes, increasing the difficulties for young people looking for a job. Purpose: Analysis and synthesis of the main existing vulnerabilities on the youth labour market, their manifestation in the development regions of Romania under the conditions of the Covid-19 pandemic. Method: Descriptive statistical analysis was used in particular for visualizing and synthesizing the information derived from the regional labour market data. The classification analysis was used to define a typology of vulnerabilities on the youth labour market, and the factor analysis to create indicators of the vulnerability of their employment. Results: creation of a synthesis of the main vulnerabilities encountered on the youth labour market at the level of the development regions of Romania.
