KYIV, April 22 – Ukraine's GDP growth in 2019 will slow down from 3.3% last year to 2.7% this year and 2.6% next year with the hryvnia exchange rate weakening to UAH 30.5 per $1 by the end of 2019 and UAH 31.5/$1 by the end of 2020, Morgan Stanley forecast.
According to the survey, this is due to political and macroeconomic uncertainty, which affects investment, gas tariff increases and still high inflation, which suppresses household consumption.
