Anita Angelovska Bezhoska: Strengthening of the institutional capacity of the NBRNM in the process of its accession to the ESCB Speech by Ms Anita Angelovska Bezhoska, Governor of the National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia, at the opening conference of the Twinning Project "Strengthening of the institutional capacity of the NBRNM in the process of its accession to the ESCB", Skopje, 30 October 2019. * * * Your Excellency Gerberich, dear Mr. Janmaat, Secretary Vučić, representatives of the central banks of Germany and Croatia, ladies and gentlemen, It is my great pleasure to address you at today’s event to mark the launch of a particularly important project that we expect to contribute to our further profiling as a modern central bank, with strong capacity and readiness to join the European family of central banks. The European Union has been important institutional, economic and political benchmark for us from the outset of the transition process. The EU pre-accession process itself provides key tools that support and reinforce the reform process in a country aspiring to full membership, thereby strengthening its institutional capacity and economic foundations. Faster institutional and economic convergence, including faster convergence to the European central bank values, will also mean faster integration into the European family. That is why we, at the National Bank, have been strengthening our capacity through various modalities, often with direct EU support using the available tools.
