The war has become a new negative factor influencing business activity and the investment environment in Ukraine, as a result of which the integral indicator of the Investment Attractiveness Index of Ukraine, calculated by the European Business Association (EBA), over the six months fell from 2.73 to 2.17 points from 5 possible, which was the minimum since 2013.
"As expected, the CEOs have worsened their assessment of the investment environment in Ukraine. The percentage of CEOs who consider it extremely unfavorable has increased tenfold – from 5% to 53% over the past six months. Another 34% consider it rather unfavorable, while 9% of CEOs gave a neutral assessment, and another 4% consider it favorable,” the EBA said.
