The insignia of the Court of Accounts were approved at the sitting of the
National Heraldry Committee under the President of the Republic of Moldova,
minutes no. 137-III of 28 June 2006.
The insignia were approved by the
Decision of the Court of Accounts nol.44 of 15 June 2006 "On approving the coat
of arms, the emblem, the colors of the Court of Accounts and the badge of
affiliation with the Court of Accounts". Goal: to distinguish the supreme
external financial control body.
All symbols shall have a blue and silver
billeted field, a crossed golden eagle, with red beak and talons, in a
half-opened fly, wearing on its chest the escutcheon from the State Emblem of
the Republic of Moldova (divided horizontally into two parts, red and blue in
color, with the head of a golden superimposed aurochs showing an eight-pointed
star between its horns, flanked by a rose to its dexter, and a crescent to its
sinister, all golden as well) and holding in its dexter talon Mercury's Caduceus
made of silver, and in its sinister talon a two-piece tally of the same metal.
Alternating blue and silver glazes we get the balance between the two values
of a calculation, the debit and the credit. At the same time, the blue color
symbolizes fidelity and perseverance in heraldry. It is the general color of
civil institutions identifying with the European civilization and expresses
attachment to the western colors. Silver, in turn, stands for purity, immaculacy
and correctness in intentions.
The hawk with a the state escutcheon of
the Republic of Moldova marks the fact that the state supreme financial control
body - the Court of Accounts of Moldova - is a national institution subordinated
to the Parliament. This is the hawk from the state emblem, graphically and color
altered in order to avoid confusion with the hawk on the official escutcheon. Of
the attributes of the state hawk only the cross in the beak was preserved,
without which the heraldic bird cannot be identified as such. The hawk of the
Court of Accounts is represented in a half-opened fly this way expressing the
idea of protection, in this case the protection of public financial resources
and public assets.
In the dexter talon the hawk holds Mercury's Caduceus,
a scepter representing a stick with two wings on top with two snakes encircling
it in opposite directions. Mercury (lat. Mercurius - meaning goods, to
trade) was the god of trade in Roman mythology and identified with the Greek god
Hermes.
In the sinister talon the hawk holds a tally made of two parts.
In old times, the tally was a tool for keeping records very popular with
European ancient people. In Romanian the term is borrowed from the Southern
Slave languages (Bulgarian and Serbian-Croatian) and circulated in other
variants too. Using a contemporary language, the tally made of two parts stands
for a register which shows the inflows and outflows. All European people widely
used the tally made of two parts; some of them used it until the 19-th century.
For instance, the cuttings used on the tallies for the transfer of payments of
the UK State to the Bank of England are known worldwide.
The emblem of
the Court of Accounts shall be present on the official seals of the Court of
Accounts and its subdivisions, on the letterheads, official documents issued by
the Court of Accounts, buildings, offices and other rooms belonging to the Court
of Accounts, on the web page of the Court of Accounts, identity cards of the
Court of Accounts employees, on diplomas and other decorations awarded by the
Court of Accounts etc.
Vanya Poposki, 15 July 2015
The flag and arms of the Court of Accounts of Moldova, approved by Decision
No. 44 issued on 15 June 2006 by the Court, were registered on the Armorial
