“Financial Transactions in Ukraine: the Basics” is an accessible resource that gives information about a highly regulated part of the Ukrainian economy.
The Ukrainian banking and finance regulatory framework is still developing, thus the leg­islation surrounding it is not always consistent. The Ukrainian capital market has a rather piecemeal legal environment which has only been integrated with foreign financial mar­kets to a limited extent.
In terms of both geography and business, the Ukrainian financial market is closely linked to the markets in the EU, Asia and North America, so that develop­ments in Ukraine have a certain influence on western markets.
On this macro-economic level the publication strives to help better understand the Ukrainian financial market in general.
More importantly, it goes beyond the press cliches about emerging markets and offers the first micro-economic advice to foreign investors on the financing side of their busi­ness. It also explains in detail the main concerns that the most popular financial transac­tions should deal with in their planning and implementation.
