Ukraine plans to create an Investment Attraction Agency as a single entry point for investors in the domestic private sector.
The First Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine, Yulia Svyridenko, announced this after a visit to London, where she discussed the creation of the agency, in particular with representatives of the London Stock Exchange (LSE).
She noted that during a meeting with LSE experts, they announced their readiness to provide expert support for the creation of this institute.
Svyridenko also noted that she met with representatives of British International Investment, who expressed their readiness to allocate GBP 250 million to finance the private sector in Ukraine, in particular for reconstruction after the war.
According to her, these funds will be available from April through the Co-investment platform, so it is important to prepare high-quality projects to receive them.
Svyridenko also emphasized that the possibility of cooperation with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, as well as with UK Export Finance (UKEF) in the field of defense industry was considered.
