KIEV, June 3 – Due to the strengthening of the hryvnia, contractors working on the primary real estate market in Kiev are giving up pegging their prices to foreign currencies, market analysts say.

"Almost all Kiev constructors have decided not to peg their prices to foreign currencies. This is mainly due to the strengthening of the hryvnia in the last ten days of May," reads a press release of Kiev-based Kiev-Zhytlo-Invest Construction and Investment Company, citing its analysts.
