A program aimed at aiding #ukraine 's reconstruction plans to mobilize $15 billion through a blend of state and private funds, with a significant portion from capital markets. The Ukraine Development Fund, spearheaded by Philipp Hildebrand of #blackrock Inc., anticipates securing $500 million from various national and developmental sources, alongside $2 billion from private investments. This effort could generate a consortium capable of funding $15 billion in reconstruction, contributing to the vast estimated need of nearly $500 billion post-invasion. The fund is likely to be based in #luxembourg , focusing on agriculture, manufacturing, infrastructure, and energy, with about 20 projects already deemed viable. Efforts to attract investment have obviously been tempered by ongoing hostilities, but also concerns about corruption, though recent dialogues, such as those at Davos with President Zelenskiy, have been promising regarding governance reforms. The fund structure prioritizes private sector returns, with opportunities for public sector gains in profitable scenarios. High-profile contributions, like Andrew Forrest's $500 million, highlight the initiative's momentum, despite broader challenges in Ukraine's economic landscape, including debt restructuring and investment risks heightened by the conflict.

The first webinar dedicated to the Ukrainian Fund of Funds was held last Thursday, bringing together dozens of participants to discuss the current state and prospects of the new investment vehicle. According to Andrey Kolodyuk, Chairman of UVCA's Supervisory Board and Managing Partner of AVentures Capital, the idea of creating FoF was born after the outbreak of war in 2014. At the time, AVentures Capital was fundraising for its second fund. It was already facing geopolitical realities, while Andriy heard pessimistic predictions from the international business community that it was unlikely to invest in Ukraine. The main reasons are the war and a shallow market. The Fund of Funds acts as an anchor investor and market builder, helping not only to raise capital but also to build the entire VC/ PE industry by stimulating the emergence of new funds and increasing their weight. In addition, the Fund of Funds reduces the risks for other investors through its own due diligence, a 30% first commitment and on-site managers with deep local knowledge. In addition, the FoF can mobilise capital from institutional investors whose attention span remains limited. Other topics discussed included investment sectors, requirements for LPs and funds, how private investors can get involved, what the Ukraine Investment Framework has to do with it and much more. Thank you to everyone who joined us! 🙂

BlackRock expects to attract $15B from investors to reconstruct Ukraine through a reconstruction bank. According to Philipp Hildebrand, VP of the BlackRock investment company, the Development Fund of Ukraine will be composed of at least $500M from countries, development banks, and other grant providers and $2B from private investors. He added that the fund could bring together a consortium of shareholders and debt investors to finance at least $15B for reconstruction work in Ukraine. Hildebrand said the development fund would most likely be registered in Luxembourg with an investment committee, analysts, and researchers. The aim is to create one of history's most significant public-private cooperation projects, similar to Germany's KfW, which was created after World War II. The priority areas for the fund will be agriculture, production, infrastructure, and energy. Currently, about 20 projects have been selected out of 200 that have been evaluated. #BlackRock #Ukraine #investment #buildbackbetter #r3ua
