The Institute for Economic Research and Policy Consulting is pleased to invite you to our regular monthly "Diplomatic Briefing," where IER experts share their insights on the current economic situation in Ukraine and present the latest results of our business tendency survey.
The upcoming Diplomatic Briefing, focused on “Ukraine’s economic situation and challenges in June 2025”, will take place online via Zoom on July 15, 2025, Tuesday, from 16:00 to 17:00 Kyiv time (9:00-10:00 EST / 15:00-16:00 CEST).
In June, economic situation has not changed substantially. But the missile and drone attacks increased, which was reflected by the results of the Business Tendency Survey conducted by the IER. More than 50% of companies named ‘danger to work’ as one of the key obstacles for business activities. This indicates again that economic situation heavily relies on the defence situation: Ukraines needs more air defense as well as long-range missiles to protect population and business.
The Government submitted the amendments to the State Budget 2025 to secure higher defence spending. The intensity of the war will not likely reduce in the second half of 2025 as it was envisaged by the macroforecast underlining Budget-2025 figures and IMF program. The Government continues implementation of reforms, though with some delays. It came through the 8th review of the IMF program and received positive decision of the EU on the tranche under Ukraine facility.
However, challenges remain higher. We will talk about them during the Diplomatic Brief on July 15. IER experts will also discuss other recent economic trends - including trade developments, monetary policy, inflation, fiscal parameters, as well as present results of June Business Tendency Survey.
Speakers:
Oleksandra Betliy, macroeconomic, public finance, social and healthcare expert, IER Leading Research Fellow;
Vitaliy Kravchuk, macroeconomic, monetary policy and financial market expert, IER Leading Research Fellow;
Oksana Kuziakiv, IER Chief Executive, Head of the Center for Contemporary Society studies.
✅ English is a working language of the meeting.
We sincerely hope that you can honor us with your presence.
