“During the verification process, the way in which payments for gas consumption were distributed by Moldovagaz (and predecessor companies) between consumers on the right and left bank will be analyzed. Likewise, the auditors will focus on the valuation of assets previously transferred to Gazprom as (partial) settlement of debts for gas delivered to consumers on the right bank and will carry out, if necessary, the revaluation of these assets. Also, the legality of the assignment of Gazprom’s receivables to Factoring Finance will be verified”, announced the Government.
The specifications of the audit contract provide for the performance of the mission in several stages, and payments will be made as the results are delivered.
