Under the current conditions of the global market economy, effective analysis and management of trade receivables and debts requires strategies aimed at improving results. Monitoring of trade receivables and payables therefore requires increased attention in order to avoid excessive growth in receivables and payables, which would increase the risk of bankruptcy. Thus, the entity’s management must have reliable and relevant information on the economic and financial situation in order to keep the entity’s receivables and payables at an optimal level. This research emphasises the importance of analysing trade receivables and payables and the need for their proper management to improve the entity’s financial position and performance. The methodological approach of the paper involves the use of methodological and statistical-mathematical tools characteristic of the social sciences.

Foreign financial aid, both repayable and nonrepayable, plays a key role in the economic development trajectories of recipient countries as part of Official Development Assistance (ODA). The effects, whether positive or negative, can be observed in various development indicators, the outcomes being influenced by external factors (crises, political context). Despite the ongoing debate and scholastic divergence, a gap in empirical investigations persists, pertaining to the assessment of the contribution of financial assistance to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outlined in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This research aims to fill that gap by investigating the role of foreign assistance in helping the Republic of Moldova reach its SDGs. The applied methodology involves factorial analysis correlated with statistical analysis. The research underscores the indispensable role of financial assistance in achieving sustainable development goals in the case of the Republic of Moldova.

Recent evolutions in the prices of energy resources and consumer goods have caused major pressures on household incomes. Thus, the share of expenses for food products and the payment of bills for consumed energy resources constitute more than half of the families’ budget in the Republic of Moldova. The real expenses for the mentioned goods and services would have been substantially higher if the state institutions had not intervened in the support of the population by: capping the commercial addition to socially important products, establishing reduced rates of Value Added Tax, granting compensations when paying invoices for the use natural gas, electric and thermal energy. Through this policy, the state aims to minimize the impact of inflation on real incomes and, respectively, on the purchasing power and the level of well-being of the population.
