5. Investment Attractiveness Index with the support of the InMind research company Key findings Five-grade scale is used to evaluate the investment climate, where 1 stands for the lowest evaluation and 5 stands for the highest evaluation. After the sharp decline in Sept-Oct’08 and the stabilization at the low level during the period of Oct’08 - Feb’09 the EBA Investment Attractiveness Index for the first time since its launch showed slight increase by all indicators and reached 2,6 on a 5 point scale. Though the current investment climate estimation reached only 2.3 and is the most pessimistic indicator, all other indicators increased stronger reaching 2.7-2.8. Therefore investors demonstrated more optimistic estimation of the investment climate in the coming 3 months that is now getting closer to neutral evaluations. Besides higher evaluation of the previous period (2.7) compared to the lower evaluation of the current situation (2.3) indicates that the actual situation in Ukraine on experts’ opinion proved to be slightly better than expected.

6. Investment Attractiveness Index with the support of the InMind research company Key findings The slight increase of the EBA Investment Attractiveness Index and all its components compared to the previous 2 evaluation periods also proves that the insiders evaluation of the actual Investment Climate is more optimistic compared to international country ratings based on macroeconomic indicators where Ukraine has one of the lowest positions. There is also a significant shift in the actions taken by companies in the crisis context: companies demonstrate stronger focus on their products/services quality, development and promotion as well as on company effectiveness & business planning. While the share of those who have taken cost saving measures and staff/salaries reduction remained at the same level less companies were focusing on development plans suspension and investment reduction as well as restructurization that were more significant measures during the first stages of the crisis.
