    Naftogaz did itself few favours this week with its farcical approach to repaying holders of its $1.6bn Eurobond. When Ukraine’s state owned oil and gas company missed its bond payment on September 30, it risked more than a few irate investors.

But any optimism around the borrower was dampened by lengthening views on a timeline for the EU repealing Russian sanctions and quarterly figures showing a big hit to overall CEEMEA loan volumes.
  • The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development has said it is stepping up its efforts in Ukraine and that the country will become its largest trade finance beneficiary by the end of the year.
  • Ukrainian state-run oil and gas company Naftogaz has confirmed the repayment of its $1.6bn eurobond after failing to meet its September 30 deadline.
