Economy Minister Petrashko meets with representatives of U.S. Argentem Creek

“A new legislative platform is being formed in Ukraine to strengthen Ukraine's investment potential - the so-called ‘investment nanny’ bill. In addition, concession legislation on public-private partnership has already been improved. A list of priority investment projects is currently being formed. The office of UkraineInvest has also been reset. All these actions are a good signal for investors,” said Petrashko.

The participants of the meeting discussed potential investment projects, in particular, in the agro-industrial complex, production, engineering industry, IT sector, and transport infrastructure. The parties agreed to continue the dialogue in order to develop future plans in Ukraine for the next months and years.

Argentem Creek is a leading U.S. company specializing in financing projects in the emerging markets. It is headquartered in New York. The company has been operating in Ukraine for six years. Ten years before, the company operated as Black River, part of Cargill.
