The National Bank expects that the inflow of foreign direct investment in Ukraine in 2021 will amount to $6.5 billion.
“At year-end 2021, we expect that the inflow of foreign direct investment will total $6.5 billion, and the greater part of this amount arises, as the companies with foreign capital reinvest their income and profits in their activities,” Deputy Governor of the National Bank of Ukraine Serhiy Nikolaychuk said at a briefing.
According to him, next year the NBU expects lower reinvestment.
“At the same time, we expect that Ukraine will receive new funds from abroad from parent companies. At the end of next year, we expect that foreign direct investment will increase by $5.5 billion,” said the NBU Deputy Governor.
According to Nikolaychuk, the dividend repatriation over 11 months of this year amounted to $7.5 billion.
“At year-end, we expect that this sum will exceed $8 billion,” he concluded. (Ukrinform/Business World Magazine)
