Sayenko Kharenko has advised the European Fund for Southeast Europe on the provision of a EUR 20 million loan through its Ukraine Sub-Fund to Ukrgasbank.
According to Sayenko Kharenko, the financing is aimed at expanding access to local currency lending for micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises in Ukraine, with a particular focus on regions most affected by Russian aggression and on underserved groups, including women and veteran entrepreneurs. In addition to the loan, a dedicated grant program will be made available for MSME end-borrowers.
The Sayenko Kharenko team included Partner Igor Lozenko, Senior Associate Oles Trachuk, Associate Yevhen Koval, and Trainee Mykola Suprunovych.
Sayenko Kharenko did not respond to our inquiry on the matter.
