Of the four categories of Ukrainian companies, one has died, and three are dying
Different types of Ukrainian enterprises are experiencing the crisis in different ways.
Director of the Economic Policy Department of the Federation of Employers of Ukraine Sergey Salivon spoke about this in an interview with the TOPINFORM channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“We can roughly divide problem enterprises into four categories. The first category is mainly small and medium-sized businesses that are still afloat, but without government support they have a very bad prospect by May or even earlier. They somehow try to retain employees, pay them wages, in any case having a decrease in revenue, a decrease in orders, and so on.
The second category is enterprises that worked for export. Exports are also not going well, the number of orders is falling, international trade is falling. Another problem they have is that they are usually borrowed in foreign currency. They received foreign currency earnings; accordingly, they were credited in foreign currency. They had no currency risk, but now it has appeared.
The third category is medium and large machine-building enterprises, which are now simply deprived of a sales market, because even in the current conditions, our government continues to purchase, conditionally, MAZ buses with XNUMX% localization in Belarus. Or they continue to allocate money for roads that are built by anyone but our builders, and so on.
There are many such examples. These enterprises will not survive without any government infrastructure projects at all. If there is no funding, they will fall completely.
The fourth category is those who have already been laid up and who have already been banned from working. This is the same service sector, the same public catering,” concluded Salivon.
