KYIV, Aug 30 – Since the beginning of the war, the receivables of shopping and entertainment centers (SEC) have increased by 10-60% depending on the location, project quality and management, Yevhenia Loktionova, director of the Ukrainian Trade Guild (UTG), has told Interfax-Ukraine.

"Currently, almost all retail outlets report an increase in accounts receivable, which can amount to millions of hryvnias. At some malls, receivables have grown by 60% since the beginning of the war. At the same time, this situation is largely the result of incompetent work of the staff and lost time," Loktionova said.
