Study: Flawed judiciary, widespread corruption hamper foreign investment in Ukraine

Foreign investors don’t trust Ukraine’s judiciary and complain about ubiquitous corruption, according to a survey published by Ukrainian investment fund Dragon Capital on Nov. 9.

Nearly half of 117 respondents who filled out the questionnaire on Oct. 26-30 — foreign investors who have or plan to put money in Ukraine — said that the Ukrainian investment climate has become less attractive in 2020 as the struggle to build a strong judiciary system and eliminate corruption in the country continues.
