PM Groysman: Pension reform becomes possible due to economic growth

The implementation of the pension reform has become possible due to economic growth and bringing economy out of shadows.

Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman wrote this on Facebook.

"People often ask me about the source of the funds for implementation of the pension reform. The answer is simple: implementation of the pension reform has become possible as a result of our efforts to ensure economic growth and bring economy out of shadows," Groysman noted.

He cited the data from the Pension Fund, which show that the revenues from the unified social tax for five months of this year increased by almost 35% compared to the same period last year. "This is the additional resource we return to people in form of increase in pensions," the Prime Minister stressed.
