OSCE Mission to Moldova

The OSCE Mission to Moldova is an OSCE field operation that operates on both banks of the Dniester/Nistru River, with offices on both sides of the Administrative Boundary Line in Chisinau, Tiraspol and Bender.

The Mission’s top priority is to facilitate through peaceful negotiations a comprehensive settlement of the Transdniestrian conflict based on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Republic of Moldova with a special status for Transdniestria within Moldova. The Mission also pursues a range of other activities in the context of promoting a comprehensive, just and lasting Transdniestrian settlement.

OSCE Mission to Moldova is looking to hire an international expert to advise the Mission and to assist in discussions, in co-operation with and through the Mission, with experts from the two sides in the banking sector. The main goal of the consultancy is to identify a common agreement on small, concrete steps that would help building relations between the banking sectors, harmonizing standards and addressing the interests of both Sides.

The sub-Working Group on Banking between Moldova and Trasndniestria restarted after a break of nearly six years. Reforms in the Moldovan banking sector to comply with international regulatory standards have created challenges for engagement between the two Sides’ banking sectors. The Sides are reviewing specific issues, but the Mission requires assistance to build its own capacity to facilitate the discussions. 

Duties and Responsibilities:

The expert shall be tasked to:

  • Analysing the current payment system between Moldova (MD) and Transdniestria (TD) through the clearing centre in Tiraspol and determining whether this system can be extended to resemble a typical inter-banking relationship without compromising NBM’s compliance issues;
  • Assessing what other potential payment systems can be established between MD and TD, including the use of other currencies (such as EUR and USD), in addition to Moldovan lei, for settling payments between MD and TD;
  • Conducting interviews, in Chisinau and Tiraspol, with banking experts and settlement process representatives from MD and TD to identify opportunities and challenges;
  • Proposing concrete steps to the Mission for building up banking sector relations between MD and TD that address their concerns.

Required Qualifications:

  • A minimum of 11 years of experience working in the banking sector, including the CiS region. This should include an understanding of operational banking and compliance issues especially in emerging or transformation countries. Ideally someone who worked in the management of a foreign subsidy of bank in the CIS region;
  • Experience as a consultant in the financial sector;
  • Experience in the CIS region;
  • Sensitivity for political issues related to conflict zones.

Remuneration:

Remuneration will depend on qualifications and experience, and according to the current OSCE consultancy rates.
