“Ukraine has already completed four of the five structural beacons provided for in the monitoring program of the International Monetary Fund, which the state has committed to complete by the end of January,” the Ekonomicheskaya Pravda newspaper said, citing sources.

It is specified that the regulator fulfilled part of the requirements on January 26, having approved the concept of a diagnostic survey of banks and approaches to its implementation.

In addition, the Ukrainian authorities appointed a new composition of Naftogaz and approved a bill to abolish tax benefits from July 1, 2023.

Earlier it was reported that the IMF is exploring the possibility of providing Ukraine with a multi-year loan of up to $16 billion.
