Credit-Rating to unveil office in Minsk

23.06.2009

The financial markets of Ukraine and Belarus get closer.

Time and venue:
June 23, 12.30
4, Khreschatyk str., Kiev
Conference hall of UNIAN agency

In June 2009 highly-ranked state officers proclaimed necessity in intensifying relations between Ukraine and Belarus. One of the reasons for such mutual interest is necessity in ensuring further development of both national economies under no access to western financial markets.

Considering these macroeconomic factors, the Ukrainian Credit-Rating agency has made a decision on entering the Belorussian financial market.

It is first time when a foreign credit rating agency starts operations in Belarus, which has followed rising interest of investors (from Russia, Ukraine and western countries) to the economy of this country.

In fact, the national investors show interest to the Belorussian economy despite adverse consequences of global crisis.

The Credit-Ratings presence in both countries has already spurred inflows of investments to Ukraine from Poland, Baltic States and Russia the countries bordering on Belarus and having close economic ties with this country.

The press conference will host Credit-Ratings CEO Stanislav Dubko, Credit-Ratings Deputy CEO Grigoriy Pererva, and expert in international relations Vasiliy Shik.
