The agreement, signed on Thursday on the sidelines of a Ukraine recovery conference in Gdansk, Poland, is intended to catalyze and support opportunities for private sector investment in Ukraine in connection with the fund’s investments, the DFC said in a statement. The U.S.-Ukrainian fund, set up under a minerals deal signed between the U.S. and Ukraine a year ago, is focused on five strategic sectors, including critical minerals. Ukraine continues to fight Moscow’s full-scale invasion launched in February 2022. Approval of a second project is expected in the coming weeks, Ukraine has said. DFC Chief of Staff Conor Coleman said the agreement would ensure that the DFC could mobilize additional private investment vehicles alongside joint projects that the U.S. agency and the Ukrainian government are pursuing under the U.S.-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund. That, in turn, he said, would give investors the “confidence to pursue high-impact opportunities in Ukraine,” without providing any further details. Political risk insurance is a specialized type of coverage that protects businesses, investors and lenders against financial losses caused by adverse government actions, political instability or geopolitical turmoil. Ed Mountfield, vice president and chief financial officer of the World Bank’s Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency, said investment guarantees were needed to help mobilize private capital investments, and that the partnership would help strengthen Ukraine’s overall business environment. The deal was signed by Coleman and Mountfield, and witnessed by Ukraine Economy Minister Oleksiy Sobolev, World Bank President Ajay Banga and U.S. Treasury Undersecretary Jonathan Greenstein.
