The National Bank expects to receive over USD 53 billion in international aid in 2026, as well as approximately USD 42 billion in 2027.
This is stated in the NBU materials, according to the Ukrainian News agency.
Uncertainty regarding external support has significantly decreased. In April, the EU unlocked EUR 90 billion in funding for Ukraine under the Ukraine Support Loan (USL) program. The first tranche is scheduled to arrive in June. Further funding is expected under the EU’s Ukraine Facility and the G7’s Extraordinary Revenue Acceleration (ERA) programs in 2026–2027, as well as under the IMF’s Extended Fund Facility (EFF) in 2026–2029.
In total, over USD 53 billion in international aid is projected for 2026, along with approximately USD 42 billion in 2027 and USD 22 billion in 2028. This level of external support will make it possible to finance all critical budget expenditures and maintain a high level of international reserves (USD 60–67 billion in 2026–2028), which will ensure the NBU’s ability to maintain the stability of the foreign exchange market.
Should risks to price dynamics intensify, the NBU will be ready to implement additional measures to curb inflationary pressures.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, the European Union previously approved a support package for Ukraine totaling EUR 90 billion over two years.
