Brief information on Ukraine
| Short-term | There are no formal restrictions on cover. |
|---|---|
| Medium/long-term | Cover facilities are available under a ceiling of EUR 250
million with a limit on the size of the individual transaction
of EUR 25 million. Transactions with higher contract values are eligible for cover if they are particularly deserving of promotion. Transactions which are financed with a tied buyer loan are not booked against the ceiling until the loan agreement is also concluded (“first come, first served basis”). In addition, cover is available for short-term transactions, project financed and other structured finance deals, where necessary based on countertrade transactions. |
| Collateral | In the absence of a state or bank guarantee for medium and
long-term transactions with private buyers audited annual accounts
drawn up according to international accounting standards are
required, which justify the granting of cover without any other
collateral. For short-term transactions the assessment of the buyer’s creditworthiness may be based on other informative documents. Banks continue to be accepted as guarantor or borrower on a case-by-case basis; some banks have been generally accepted on the strength of their good credit rating. |
| Country risk category | 7 |
