16 April , 2021  

The Verkhovna Rada adopted bill No. 4416-1 on re-launch of the mechanism of industrial parks, which provides incentives for residents of such parks. As the agency’s correspondent reports, 260 MPs voted for the bill at the first reading with the required 226 votes.
The bill provides for such incentives for residents in industrial parks as compensation for the share of investments from 15% to 70% of capital expenditures in the first three years depending on the volume of the company’s exports, compensation for the share of interest payments on a loan from 30% to 70% depending on the volume of exports, as well as compensation in the amount of 50% of the cost of connecting to the power grids.
In addition, the bill defines the objects that can be located in the industrial park. For example, in the industrial park it is proposed to permit the placement of offices of a management company, financial institutions, marketing and advertising objects, institutions of higher and vocational education, business campuses, accelerators, foundations, resident companies, and laboratories for the development of innovative technologies. The document also proposes to allow the deployment of fire departments, production and engineering structures and other facilities there.
