An effective dialogue with international partners is the key to maintaining macrofinancial stability.
A significant delay or suspension of the fulfillment of obligations to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) can not only slow down the economic recovery, but also significantly worsen inflation and devaluation expectations in Ukraine.
This was announced by Governor of the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) Kyrylo Shevchenko at a briefing on October 22.

"Cooperation with the Fund is a basic prerequisite for full financing of the state budget deficit. Another important point is obtaining financing from international partners that is correlated with the IMF's program. This support is necessary for the rapid recovery of the Ukrainian economy," Shevchenko said.
The chief banker noted that an effective dialogue with international partners is the key to maintaining macrofinancial stability. According to him, cooperation with the IMF will allow the country to continue fulfilling the external obligations of the state and increase its international reserves to US$29-30 billion in the coming years.
