According to the Ministry of Finance, the funds are expected to be provided by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) in 2025.
The World Bank’s Economic Policy and Poverty Reduction Mission began its work in Kyiv on June 2 and will continue through June 6. This week, World Bank experts are finalizing key terms of the agreement together with representatives of the Ministry of Finance and other government officials.
Deputy Minister of Finance Olga Zykova emphasized that the World Bank remains a key partner in driving Ukraine’s reform agenda. The DPO mechanism not only supports state budget financing but also contributes to broader economic renewal.
“Last year, the DPO program delivered $3.5 billion to the state budget, helping fund essential expenditures, stabilize public finances, and advance reforms in customs, taxation, energy, banking, and the private sector,” Zykova noted.
The Ministry added that funds under the DPO program will be transferred to the general fund of the state budget following the implementation of policy actions aimed at reinforcing economic policy for sustainable growth.
