Venue: London Stock Exchange

Undeterred by political uncertainty, Ukraine’s GDP growth has picked up significantly in recent years, reaching an average of 6.1% in 2006 and 2007, bolstered by a favourable external environment and robust investment and consumer demand. Ukraine has also succeeded in attracting increased attention from international investors, with FDI levels soaring since 2004 and remaining high. A strategic location, growing prosperity, a highly skilled population of 48 million and increasing economic diversification support an increasingly confident and sophisticated financial and corporate sector which has become one of the most sought-after places to invest in Eastern Europe.

The banking, retail and industrial sectors are booming and Ukrainian corporations and banks are thirsty for international capital to finance their growth strategies, developing increasingly active and diverse capital raising methods. On the back of key legislative reforms in 2006, the PFTS and embryonic securities market present further opportunities for foreign capital. Moreover, despite credit growth reaching potentially unsustainable levels and mounting inflationary pressures, Ukraine’s current expansion is soundly based, presenting unprecedented opportunities for foreign companies.
Gathering key international and Ukrainian decision-makers and experts, this high-profile conference reflects FT Global Events’ cutting-edge investment expertise, providing new ideas and insights into how the economy and financial markets are developing in the Ukraine. Highlighting the latest trends in business, the conference will identify key areas of growth, track trends in the investment climate and appraise corporate strategies to raise international capital.
