The International Monetary Fund will hold meetings in Ukraine to discuss policy goals and issues with the Ukrainian authorities.
This was reported by the Fundʼs representative in the country Vagram Stepanyan, Reuters reports.
The IMF team, led by Uma Ramakrishnan, Deputy Director of the Fundʼs European Department, will begin meetings on October 1.
"High-level interaction will focus on political goals and challenges in the context of Ukraineʼs program, which is supported by the IMFʼs Extended Financing Facility," Stepanyan said.
- Last week, the IMF mission began a second review of the multi-year credit program for the country for $15.6 billion. The four-year program is part of a $115 billion global package to support Ukraineʼs economy.
- In July, Ukraine received the second tranche of $890 million from the International Monetary Fund. Before that , the IMF supplemented the support program for Ukraine with four new "beacons". In total, there are 23 items in the list of all structural "lighthouses".
