Continuing decline in economy of Ukraine, absence of equity market, decrease in property valuations, massive bankruptcy of banks and non-repayment of bank deposits almost brought to nothing all schemes of capital funds accrual for short-term investment background.
The question of where to invest your savings in Ukraine, currently are asked by those, who:
- managed to siphon off funds from banks and have a financial liquidity for capital investment;
- afraid to keep savings in possession, due to the high level of thievery;
-understand, that investment in property is a long-term investment;
- ready to go for risk, for a profitability of investments;
- ready to start own business;
- don`t want to pull funds abroad and believe in the bright future of Ukraine.
There is still a chance for those types of investors – investment in small and venture business (usually IT projects).
The price for entering the business with the check from $20 000 to $150 000 can provide a full repurchase of the business, co-investment and collaborating participation in the project, business acceleration according to the franchising model or investments in startups.
