BNE IntelliNews Sept. 2021 Ukraine Country Report conclusions.
Friday, September 10, 2021
“Ukraine’s economy has been recovering from last year’s crisis with industrial production bouncing back strongly in April, up 13% y/y. However, the growth is going off the boil now with industrial production also falling back to a mere 1.1% y/y in June as the low base effects fade away. The fly in the ointment has been inflation which has come roaring back this year and broke above 10% for the first time in years in July to reach 10.2% after the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) had effectively crushed inflation in the summer of 2020 as it briefly dropped below 2%.”
