KYIV, Oct 21 – The IMF Board on Friday completed the fifth review of the Extended Fund Facility (EFF) for Ukraine, which will allow allocating about $1.1 billion (SDR 834.9 million) of the 6th tranche to Ukraine, which will be used to support the budget.

"Ukraine's economy remains resilient, and performance remains strong under the EFF despite challenging conditions. The authorities met all end-June quantitative performance criteria and completed four structural benchmarks," the Fund reported on its website.
