New Report Details Impact of Ukrainian Oligarchs on Country’s Economy
“Ukraine has for years battled against corruption and an oligarchic class that sought to extract rents and limit Ukraine’s full potential for their personal benefit,” said Andrew Wilson, Executive Director of CIPE. “The report commissioned by CIPE is one of many efforts to support Ukrainian businesses and develop anti-corruption measures that help establish trust and accountability, as well as build a strong foundation for a post-war economic recovery.”
The report includes the analysis of data for more than 750 companies related to the 20 largest business groups in Ukraine. The data includes financial reports, ownership structures, and histories of privatization and regional impact within Ukraine, as well as state statistics and sectoral data provided by industry sources. Qualitative methodology includes the analysis of information streams on business, regulation, behavior and intentions of oligarchs, as well as relevant public-sector policies.
The report also provides comprehensive recommendations to Ukrainian and western stakeholders, from the public sector to civil society organizations, regarding policies and actions that may help expedite the transformation to a more competitive Ukrainian economy. The in-depth publication is one of a series of reports and policy briefs commissioned by CIPE and local partners to inform reconstruction plans and support accountable investment. CIPE has maintained a presence in Ukraine for over three decades and has a large network of private sector and civil society partners.
