Dear Colleagues,
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 October 2025”, will take place online via Zoom on November 11, 2025, Tuesday, from 16:00 to 17:00 Kyiv time (9:00-10:00 EST / 15:00-16:00 CEST).
In October, economic situation was suppressed as russian forces attacked heavily energy infrastructure (both gas and electricity production and transmission) by drones and missiles. The damages were in many regions of Ukraine, which resulted in the introduction of schedules for power outage. The access to electricity by industrial sector was likely facilitated by imports of electricity as well as independent generation as some companies installed them in previous years. Damages to gas extraction resulted in larger need to import natural gas. The EBRD announced new loan to Naftogaz for the necessary purchases.
The financial needs of the government remain high. At the same time, there is still no clear decision on the possibilities and timing of the Reparation loan from the EU. Negotiations on new IMF program are still ongoing. Meanwhile, the Government works on the preparation of the Draft State Budget Law for 2026.
During the Diplimatic Briefing we will discuss key economic parameters and business tendencies of October in greater detail.
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.
