All projects relate to key sectors: energy, infrastructure, critical minerals, and innovative technologies.
The American-Ukrainian Investment Recovery Fund received over 60 project proposals during the first month of accepting applications. Thirty-seven of these were from Ukrainian companies. According to the Judicial-Legal Newspaper, Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko announced this. PromPolitInform reports:
“Our goal is to sign the first three investment agreements by the end of 2026. The Fund will prioritize investments in projects that will help attract additional capital for investment and will have the greatest impact on our economy,” the Prime Minister noted.
The team has already begun working on the proposals. The first project is being prepared for due diligence. Another 21 are in the development stage. All projects relate to key sectors: energy, infrastructure, critical minerals, and innovative technologies.
The fund has a starting capital of $150 million—$75 million each from Ukraine and the United States. It is also being replenished with proceeds from license sales. A governing board and specialized committees have been established, and an investment advisor has been selected—in other words, all the conditions for further investment decisions are in place.
The fund is part of a long-term economic partnership with the United States that combines investment, technology, and a security component.
