Ukraine will soon receive another tranche of $2.2 billion from the International Monetary Fund, according to the IMF press service.
According to the Ministry, the IMF Executive Board has completed the fourth review of the extended arrangement under the Extended Fund Facility program for Ukraine. This made it possible to allocate about $2.2 billion to Ukraine, which will be used for budget support.
"Ukraine’s performance remains strong under the EFF despite challenging conditions. All quantitative performance criteria for end-March were met, and all structural benchmarks through end-June were implemented on time or with a short delay," the IMF said.
According to the Fund, even though the outlook remains extremely uncertain, the Ukrainian economy continues to be resilient.
