Abstract

This paper analyzes the implementation, effectiveness, and challenges of the inflation targeting framework in the Republic of Moldova. It explores the theoretical foundations of inflation targeting, reviews Moldova’s historical transition from high and volatile inflation to a structured monetary policy framework, and examines the National Bank of Moldova's strategies for achieving price stability. Empirical analysis of policy performance, including Taylor Rule estimates and responses to economic shocks, is presented. The study highlights the strengths of inflation targeting, such as enhanced credibility and anchored inflation expectations, while also addressing challenges related to external shocks, structural constraints, and data limitations. Finally, the paper provides perspectives for improving Moldova’s monetary policy framework, emphasizing forecasting, communication, and institutional capacity, thereby contributing to sustainable economic stability and growth.
