Reconstruction Investment Fund has begun its operational work: Yulia Svyrydenko
Тhe U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) has made a contribution of USD 75 million to the U.S.-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund, and Ukraine will match it.
“In such a way, we form the initial position of the Reconstruction Investment Fund with a total of USD 150 million. This joint step launches the Fund’s practical activity, and as of today, we can declare: operational work has begun,” said Ukraine’s Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko.
The Government aims until the end on 2026 to implement three large-scale projects: in energy, infrastructure, and critical minerals.
“It is essential that the Fund is built on the principle of equality. Ukraine assumes the same financial obligations as the American side, underlining both our responsibility and our vision of the Fund as a genuine instrument of shared recovery and long-term cooperation,” stressed Yulia Svyrydenko.
According to the Prime Minister, this decision opens the way to financing modern industries, creating new jobs, and advancing technological solutions that strengthen Ukraine’s economy and security.
“The start-up capital also carries broader meaning: American investment in Ukraine becomes a guarantee of security for both Ukraine and American business operating here. I thank our American partners for their trust. Together, we are stronger,” highlighted Yulia Svyrydenko.
