Invitation Letter inaugural presentation on November 28, 2023
On behalf of the Institute for Economic Research and Policy Consulting
(ІER), we express our sincere respect and invite you to participatein the
presentation of the Monitoring of the Implementation of the IMF Program
and the EU Macro-Financial Program.
Cooperation with international partners is of paramount importance for
Ukraine today, given that domestic budget revenues only suffice to cover
defense and security expenses. Both the EU and the IMF stand prepared to
contribute financial support to the budget. However, their commitment goes
beyond mere monetary provision, extending to the creation of essential
conditions for Ukraine's prosperity.
To achieve macroeconomic sustainability and establish the groundwork for
economic growth, loan memoranda encompass pivotal structural benchmarks
(IMF) and commitments (EU). These represent the necessary reforms and
changes that Ukraine must undertake.
For this purpose, the #RRR4U consortium is commencing regular monitoring
of Ukraine's adherence to these benchmarks and commitments.
The inaugural presentation of this monitoring initiative is scheduled for
November 28, 2023, from 15:00 to 17:00 (Kyiv time) and we sincerely hope
that you will be able to join us.
Format: Hybrid (in-person in Kyiv + online Zoom). The specific venue in
Kyiv will be disclosed to registered participants.
The event languages are Ukrainian and English (simultaneous translation
provided).
We are looking forward to hearing about your decision regarding your
participation to:
