KYIV, May 8 – The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) expects $42.2 billion in international financial assistance in 2023 and its reduction to $26.4 billion in 2024 and to $16.8 billion in 2025, according to the estimates given in the Inflation Report of the central bank.

In 2023, an increase in the volume of international assistance is expected. And its decrease in 2024-2025 will reflect the further restoration of the internal resource base of the budget and the reduction of its deficit as security risks decline, the NBU said.
