UK Support to Financing of Recovery from Economic Emergency in Ukraine (FREE Ukraine)

The UK will provide fiscal support to the Government of Ukraine through a £74m grant to a World Bank Multi-Donor Trust Fund and up to $450m in guarantees enabling more World Bank lending to Ukraine. This will provide important financial support to Ukraine.. Outcomes of the financing will reflect a reduced financing gap for the Ukrainian Government, the maintenance of essential payments (e.g. pensions and state salaries) and services, and limiting the extent of market concerns.
