LAUNCH EVENT: Kyiv, Ukraine - 25 January 2012
Increasing competitiveness in key sectors could boost investment and growth
Increasing competitiveness in key sectors could help Ukraine attract foreign investment, boost job creation and improve long-term growth prospects, says a report presented today by the OECD Eurasia Competitiveness Programme and financed by the Swedish Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA).
The Ukraine Sector Competitiveness Strategy outlines reform priorities for three sectors with a high potential sectors for attracting investment: agribusiness, machinery and transport manufacturing, and alternative energies.

"The Sector Competitiveness Review is an important step in the collaboration between Ukraine and the OECD. Today we face an ambitious and challenging task - to carry out the right reforms, which is the precondition for building a prosperous future," said Iryna Akimova, First Deputy Head of the Administration of the President of Ukraine and Representative of the President at the Cabinet of Ministers. "I’m convinced that implementation of the Project “Ukraine SCS” will support Ukraine to reach new levels of growth."
“Ukraine has a high potential for investments thanks to its rich natural resources such as high-quality agricultural land, mineral deposits and a highly qualified labour force, “ said Antonio Somma, Acting Head of the OECD Eurasia Competitiveness Programme. “The economic reforms recommended in the report, once implemented, will help unlock this potential and improve the country’s investment climate.”
The report outlines priorities for reform in each sector:
- improving access to finance and reducing the skills gap in agribusiness, and specifically in the grain and dairy sectors;
- enhancing investment policy and promotion in the biomass sector by streamlining administrative processes and providing a single-window approach for investors; and
- strengthening corporate governance in the civilian aircraft manufacturing sector and separating the civilian sector from the military sector to enable partnerships with global suppliers.
The report is the result of the first phase of the OECD Sector Competitiveness Project for Ukraine. In the second phase, from 2012-2013, the OECD Eurasia Competitiveness Programme will work with the Ukrainian government to support the implementation of these recommendations in each sector.
