Ukraine’s parliament adopted a law allowing insurance of investments in Ukraine against war risks, Ekonomichna Pravda reported on May 30.
The decision was supported by 241 out of 450 lawmakers.
The law expands the capabilities of the Export Credit Agency, allowing it to insure both domestic and foreign investments against the risks caused by armed aggression or terrorism.
These investments have to be used for creating facilities and infrastructure needed for industrial production and exports of Ukrainian origin.

Independent journalism needs a community —
not a paywall.
We’re working hard to show the world the truth of Russia’s brutal war — and we’re keeping it free for everyone, because reliable information should be available to all.
Our goal: reach 20,000 members to prove independent journalism can survive without paywalls, billionaires, or compromise. Will you help us do it?
