    Dinamica specializării comerţului exterior al Republicii Moldova
    (IEFS, 2011) Stratan, Alexandru; Clipa, Victoria
    În ultimul deceniu, comerţul exterior al Republicii Moldova, dar mai cu seamă exporturile au înregistrat performanţe foarte modeste. Spre deosebire de importuri, exporturile moldoveneşti au crescut foarte încet, fiind cauzate, în mare parte, şi de reducerea producţiei naţionale. În acest articol este analizat gradul de specializare al comerţului exterior al Republicii Moldova şi măsura în care acesta a evoluat pe perioada de tranziţie. Moldova continuă să se specializeze, cu precădere, în exportul de produse agroalimentare. Structura importurilor este predominată de produsele mediu şi înalt tehnologice. Cu toate acestea, Moldova începe să importe cantităţi tot mai mari de produse pentru care reflectă un grad înalt de specializare

    Development and side effects of remittances in the CIS countries : the case of Republic of Moldova
    (European University Institute, 2013) Stratan, Alexandru; Chistruga, Marcel; Clipa, Victoria; Fala, Alexandru; Septelici, Viorica
    Migration is a longstanding phenomenon. However, the impact of remittances on the countries of origins, makes migration a topic of special interest for many researchers. In the Republic of Moldova remittances have become a much discussed and much analyzed subject, Moldova ranking among the economies with the highest share of remittances in terms of GDP. What is more, remittances, unlike FDI, external trade and other sources of income, seem to have a significant impact on economic growth. Within the present work an attempt has been made to capture the positive and negative spillovers that migrants’ remittances have on a country’s socio-economic development. The study summarises previous findings and data sources related to remittances and their influence on the economy. Moreover, authors investigate the link between remittances and economic growth, investments, inflation, employment, human capital and poverty. The study combines the theoretical background with an analysis of the real trends and fluctuations in the Moldovan economy.

    Risks to the agri-food sector of Republic of Moldova associated with restrictions imposed by Russian Federation on Moldovan imports
    (2015) Stratan, Alexandru; Fala, Alexandru; Clipa, Victoria
    After Republic of Moldova has declared its firm decision to sign the Association Agreement with the European Union, Russia has tightened Moldovan products’ access on its market. It has imposed a series of bans on Moldovan agri-food imports starting with the end of last year – wines (September 2013), pork meat (April 2014), fresh and canned fruits and vegetables (July 2014), all kinds of meat (October 2014). On July 31, a resolution on the introduction of import duties in respect of imported products whose country of origin is the Republic of Moldova, especially beef, pork, chicken, vegetables, some fruits, cereals, sugar, wine grapes, alcohol, and furniture has been adopted. This situation increases tension among domestic farmers and food producers and sparks concerns among decision makers, due to the high concentration of some of these products on the Russian market. The present paper aims to offer: an alternative vision on the effects these measures may have on different segments of the Moldovan agri-food sector; some attempts to estimate losses in revenue from exports in the most exposed to risk sectors. Some recommendations of measure to overcome the possible negative effects have been formulated. Despite the existence of trade preferential regime between CIS countries since the early 90s of the past century, nontariff barriers remain to be a major impediment to trade among them. Particularly severe are trade embargoes applied by Russia Federation. Although, the experience showed that some of these measures have strong negative impact, other effects appear to be sometimes overstated. This does motivate Russian authorities to use them as a leverage to solve non-economic disagreements, maintaining the dependence of the country and hindering its initiative to promote proper policies to develop its national competitiveness.

    Assessing the export performance in transition countries : the case of the Republic of Moldova
    (2011) Stratan, Alexandru; Clipa, Victoria
    Despite their common legacy of central planning and of a new beginning in the ’90s, transition countries have achieved different export performances. Although there is not a consensus among economists on the dimension of exports impact on economic growth, the non-performance or poor performance of exports may indicate inadequate policy reforms that by consequence do hinder economic growth. The purpose of this paper is to make an assessment of performances that Republic of Moldova’s exports have achieved after 20 years of transition compared to other countries in Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
