МВФ
On Tuesday, March 3, Ukraine received the first tranche from the International Monetary Fund.
This was stated by Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Svyridenko.
“Ukraine today received the first tranche from the IMF under a new four-year program under the Extended Fund Facility (EFF),” the post says.
She noted that $1.5 billion has already been credited and will be used to finance priority budget expenditures and support macro-financial stability.
The total volume of the program is $8.1 billion.
It should be added that since the beginning of the full-scale war, Ukraine has attracted $14.9 billion in financial support from the IMF to the state budget.
“We continue to implement agreed reforms aimed at maintaining macroeconomic stability, strengthening state institutions, and advancing the course towards European integration,” the head of government summarized.
Recall, earlier the IMF Board of Directors approved a new four-year extended financing program for Ukraine in the amount of $8.1 billion.
In addition, on February 11, the European Parliament adopted a package of proposals aimed at supporting Ukraine with an EU loan of €90 billion for 2026 and 2027. These funds will help meet Ukraine’s urgent financing needs amid Russia’s aggressive war.
