Moldova Stock Exchange to cease operations on 31 December after 32 years

The Moldova Stock Exchange (BVM) will stop operating as a market operator on 31 December 2026. The decision was taken by the company’s General Meeting of Shareholders and its Board.

Issuers whose securities are admitted to trading, exchange members and their clients can move to the Moldova International Stock Exchange (BIMx), founded last year with the support of the Bucharest Stock Exchange. BIMx has already started admitting brokers and issuers and aims to hold its first listing by the end of the year.

BVM was founded in December 1994 by 34 professional securities market participants.

What it means for you

• Companies whose shares trade on BVM have until year-end to arrange a move to another platform.
• If you hold shares through a broker, ask how and when the transfer to BIMx will happen.
• Firms planning to raise money through share or bond issues can already discuss listing terms with BIMx.
