The International Finance Corporation (IFC), part of the World Bank Group (WB), plans to submit a $1 billion financing package for Ukraine to its Board of Directors in November, including direct lending, financial guarantees and trade finance instruments, the Deputy Minister said. economics Alexander Griban.
“It is expected that such financing will also mobilize private loan capital, because IFC usually finances no more than 30% of the project cost, including commercial banks in the financial consortium. Thus, the total volume of projects of Ukrainian enterprises that can be financed will be more than $ 3.3 billion,” he was quoted in a press release from the Economy Ministry on Friday.
Hryban added that IFC is also actively working with the European fund for sustainable development (EFSD), which has already received a request for $2 billion. According to him, these funds are also planned to be used to introduce financial instruments to support Ukraine.
