Ukrainian businesses expect an increase in production of goods and services this year mainly in the western and central regions of Ukraine, according to a survey of business leaders conducted by the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) in late 2016.
Exports of Ukrainian goods and services to the European Union countries amounted to more than 35% for the first 9 months of 2016. Deputy Economy Minister Natalia Mykolska said in a commentary, Ukrinform reports.
President Petro Poroshenko has signed the law “On amending legislative acts of Ukraine on the elimination of administrative barriers to exports of services.”
