Whittling away at Ukraine’s state property mountain, 1,899 privatization auctions were held in 2020, yielding $107 million for the budget, Dmitro Sennychenko, executive chairman of the State Property Fund, reported yesterday. With this month’s end of the suspension of ‘big’ privatizations, the Fund expect to present to investors for sale this year the Odesa Port Plant and six regional power companies. Through the end of 2023, investors have the right to contracts drawn up under English law.
