The involvement of the global business community in investment projects and the reconstruction of Ukraine can be achieved through closer cooperation and effective support mechanisms. This was emphasised during a meeting between the UkraineInvest team and Halyna Yanchenko, Member of Parliament and a member of the UkraineInvest Supervisory Board.
The discussion focused on key issues such as improving Ukraine’s investment climate, insuring investments, improving support mechanisms for domestic and foreign investors, and strengthening dialogue with investors at all levels.
“Economic development and attracting investment is not just about creating jobs. Today, it means first and foremost additional taxes, which are vital to support our military. As a nation at war, attracting investment in the defence sector must be one of our priorities,” emphasised Halyna Yanchenko.
Participants also explored tools to support investment projects, including state support for projects with capital investment, streamlining procedures for obtaining permits, and developing special economic zones to create favourable conditions for business.
Particular attention was paid to improving investment legislation, the role of parliament in developing the tax and customs framework, and protecting the legal rights and interests of investors at both parliamentary and governmental levels. The discussion also highlighted the importance of developing the infrastructure needed to support investment projects at all stages, from planning to commissioning.
“An investment in Ukraine today is an investment in the future of Europe tomorrow. UkraineInvest’s cooperation with the relevant committees of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine is focused not only on creating an effective and attractive investment environment, but also on fostering trust in the state and legal institutions responsible for its implementation,” said Oleksandr Melnychenko, Acting Executive Director of UkraineInvest.
