Moldova's Transdniestria 9-mo Fixed Asset Investments Fall 10% Y/Y

Transdniestrian companies used own funds to finance 92.3% of the investments, the ministry said in a statement. It added that some 83.2% of the investments were channelled to the upgrade of production facilities.

Transdniestria is located on the left bank of the Dniestr river in eastern Moldova, where most of the country's Russian-speaking population lives. The region, which broke away from Moldova in 1990, demands full independence.
