Ukraine faces a two-year debt payment mountain of $17 billion in 2019-2020

Ukraine faces a two-year debt payment mountain of $17 billion in 2019-2020, according to a central bank report on financial stability. The National Bank of Ukraine says the only way to avoid default is to stick to the IMF program, which also unlocks low-interest loans from the EU and World Bank. Even with this multilateral help, Ukraine will have to sell Eurobonds to cover next year’s financing needs.
