  13. Positive Changes in Investment Climate during the last 3 months When being asked about positive changes that took place during the last 3 months, 76% noticed the absence of such changes in the investment climate. 11% of investors indicated relatively peaceful elections as a positive change . «Parliamentary elections went peacefully», «reduced number of inspections due to the elections», «elections finished, focus should come back to real life soon», «no more elections in near future» - with these words respondents described positive changes in last quarter of 2012.

  14. Negative Changes in Investment Climate during the last 3 months In comparison to previous periods, a lot of experts noticed the increase of pressure from fiscal authorities on business (this indicator decreased in Q2 & Q3 2012). Also the experts noted the problems of currency regulation, currency fluctuation and restrictions on foreign exchange transactions. The third important negative manifestation of Q4 2012 was the course of elections. The main part of experts negatively described the results of elections, because of lack of transparency, and impact on the economy - governmental populism and political influence on the distribution of budget funds. Also the situation of governmental corruption, inefficient judicial system, business conditions and position of Ukraine in the international arena did not improve.

  15. Estimation of the situation with solving issues For the 7 key priorities of the EBA, the situation was relatively unchanged in comparison to the previous quarter. Stable decrease of ratings was observed in the sphere of currency regulation – a mean value of this index declined in the third wave of the survey, and in the 4th quarter decreased by0.4 points.

  16. Summary The integral index of investment attractiveness and its components did not change during the fourth quarter of 2012, and the indices of 2012 showed the lowest for the entire period of measurement. If to talk about positive and negative changes, that took place in the investment climate during the last 3 months, most of experts tended to negative evaluations, in particular they noted the increase of pressure from fiscal authorities on business. Also the experts negatively evaluated currency policy of NBU. The election results were also considered as negative – for example, nontransparent elections and their impact on the policy of the Government (making populist decisions, political influence on the distribution of budget funds, etc.). The largest positive change was a relatively peaceful course of elections. For the 7 key prioritiesof the EBA in context of business and relations with the government, the situation was relatively unchanged. Current situation was considered by experts almost entirely conducive for solving problems of corruption and judiciary system, and rather unfavorable for land issues, VAT and technical barrier of trade. Experts also negatively evaluated sphere of currency regulation. The most positive were estimates of power in solving problems of customs procedures.
