Canada-Moldova Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement Negotiations

Background

On June 12, 2018, Canada and Moldova signed a bilateral Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement (FIPA) during a visit by Tudor Ulianovschi, Foreign Minister of Moldova, to Canada. The FIPA included a joint declaration recognizing the importance of progressive and inclusive trade and investment. Canada and Moldova began negotiations toward a FIPA in June 2013.

The FIPA will provide greater predictability and certainty for Canadian investors considering investment opportunities in Moldova. Canada’s objective in entering these negotiations was to secure a comprehensive, high-quality agreement that will protect investors through the establishment of a framework of legally binding rights and obligations.

Canada and Moldova are committed to working together to make their international trade and investment policies more progressive and inclusive so that all members of society, particularly women, can expand their roles in creating economic growth.
