Ukraine's Financial Outlook: Securing Funding for 2025

Ukraine's external financing needs for 2025 have been fully met.

This was announced by Ukraine's Finance Minister, Serhiy Marchenko.

"In the current year, budget support from key partners amounts to 16.8 billion USD. Thanks to our coordinated efforts, the needs for external financing for this year are completely satisfied," he stated.

At the same time, he emphasized that Ukraine must remain financially prepared for any developments.

"In 2026, international support will remain critically important for maintaining financial stability, restoring the economy, and attracting foreign investment," Marchenko continued.

The need for external financing in 2025 is projected to be 39.3 billion USD.

Additionally, Marchenko reported that due to the growth of domestic revenues and stable financing, the country is gradually reducing its budget deficit.

"As of the first quarter of 2025, revenues of the general fund of the state budget have increased by 1 billion USD compared to the same period in 2024," the report states.

Furthermore, due to the issuance of government bonds, the budget has already attracted 3 billion USD in 2025. The deficit is expected to decrease to 19.4% of GDP in 2025, down from 24% in 2024.
