Ukraine’s economy has weathered the invasion, trade and capital restrictions, and power grid challenges. What comes next?
The IMF’s new program establishes the basic framework for movement and discussions on fiscal, monetary, and debt policies, financial system stability, and growth stimulus.
What will be the priorities and timeline for economic policy? How will the national revenue strategy be shaped, and what structural reforms can we expect in fiscal policy? We will attempt to answer these questions during the event.
