different so they started to want more and of course this is long-term - this is such a faster option, and the long-term is the education of children and well, there is panic. i didn't have time to ask you about the education of children . convey how to talk to them i invite you, i promise, to a separate program about this because it is very important education well, the truth is, it is better to show the bachelor than to tell a woman that your husband will not help you in any way, you still need to be active in monitoring where your taxes go and be responsible for everything yourself is happening in your life because this is such a reality, and the head of the village council will not come to your house and do nothing and will not screw in the light bulb in the entrance, self-organization, consciousness, i thank iryna ozymok, who joined us, we talked about it. in fact, it is very important, even if they do not show you, uh, that's all on tv from all channels they show what we want to see or relax, but it is important to remember that vitaly kuprii was also there with us from gostomel sos and

they talk about their broken houses. of our survival, be with the press i understand. congratulations , this is andriy yanitskyi, news of the economy during the war , espresso tv channel, as always at this feast, we talk about economic news with you today , september 9, friday. today we will talk with oksana kuzyakiv, who represents who represents the institute of economic research and political consultations is headed by this institute, which conducts research on economy and business, if possible, let's connect ms. oksana right away, ms. oksana good morning good morning we are with you today for a reason

broadcast, and it is dedicated to the fact that today you will present to foreign partners the results of a survey of entrepreneurs that is conducted every month. please tell me what kind of survey it is, what it is dedicated to. why are you doing this work? for the last uh, 20 years, we have probably been conducting quarterly business surveys in order to find out the main economic, uh, future economic trends, and also what is happening in the real sector of the economy based on the opinion of business circles, this is such a well -known method of economic research in order to better understand what is happening in the economy at the beginning of the full-scale invasion of russia into

ukraine, a lot has changed, including , unfortunately, in the country we had problems related to the collection of statistical data, and in principle, in such a situation, it would be observed anywhere, uh, where such and such actions take place, and starting from april, we began to conduct uh, this research, uh, not every quarter anymore because it is very hmm, a long period of time, and every month, and precisely in order to supplement such a picture of what is happening in the economy, and this is what we do for the ministry of economy of ukraine and other state bodies in order to help get such a general picture. is happening in the ukrainian economy now do you have fresh data already for august

or are we talking about july let's say that and we are talking about august yes we we we conduct research every month and everything is done by the end of the month we already have data from the e-e survey which occur in the second and the third week of every month, am i correct in understanding that they have not been presented anywhere and we have such a mini-premiere and we will be able to tell the audience the first about these august results well, we partially presented but yes complex, well , let's do it now. let's make a certain premiere on the website. at least i didn't see this data from you. please tell me what are the main discoveries. maybe you were surprised by the answers of the entrepreneurs. well, actually, from the point of view of what we know from er different economic forecasts and so on.

by the way, we are not the only ones who conduct such studies in ukraine. our company boasts the largest representation of industrial enterprises. we have more than 500 a-a and these are actually all e-enterprises. of industry, that is, what we have recorded for these four months and for the last month, first of all, this is our respondents, and in general, we see that we have seen trends in terms of a decrease in the pace of economic decline in economic activity. that is, it was such a positive fact, we noted it, well, from the very first survey, that is, economic activity is still decreasing, but not as fast as yes yes yes, of course, the length is so fast, that is, accordingly, we see that this is a positive trend to recovery a-a in in the month of august here, er, we registered such

unfortunately, er, a little already mixed mixed trends and business optimism regarding the future regarding future changes is positive, it remains business remains optimistic, that is, the share of optimists is more than a share of pessimists, but here, after all, our data show that these are the rates of recovery in economic activity that we observed during the summer months, they may stop . the next next issue of a-a shows that the most important is the expectations related to new orders because it was during the summer months that we observed such very high optimism that then the next month basically

turned into in reality - this is relative the growth of e-e regarding the growth of new orders and employment as well, just as we approached this issue, this is a large block actually about e-e jobs , we remember what was before the e-e full-scale russian invasion of our business and they said that there is an e-e shortage the labor force is especially lacking in middle-level professionals, and job sites were actually overflowing with job offers , and now we know that millions of ukrainians have left, millions have changed their place of residence, and the situation has changed in a fundamental way, what can be said about employment, just see we are also employment. it is always quite conservative, that is, if er and such significant changes er indicate that

something is really happening in business, that is, let's assume if er enterprises reduce business, for example graduation, but this is a temporary phenomenon, so it will not have a strong effect on the number of employees. well, it is possible that there will be adjustments in working hours, that is, those people who are on forced vacations or reduced working hours, but not the number of employees decreases and vice versa when we plan to a-a increase something but we are not sure if this is a permanent trend, then in principle we will rather increase the involvement of er-er through temporary workers but this will not have a significant impact on employment we recorded the pace of employment reduction, they were much faster , that is, the company was expanding, let's say, employment during the summer months

, and now we see that this is exactly the trend well, it has stopped quite a bit, and the majority of the respondents - this is almost 80%, they do not plan any changes, that is, on the one hand, this is positive, because this is what we fix according to the order, that is, from the point of view of demand, and it has not yet become so. trend , yes, everything, everything has stopped, everything, everything, everything is somehow not good again. well, no, in terms of employment, we see that business has so far taken such a waiting position, and regarding the situation on the labor market, well, in principle, we see reduction of problems with finding qualified workers compared to before that we have been in the past three months in august, we have fixed this in

principle, what can this mean again or is it really that these trends well, let's say the suspension of recovery a- and they will have an extension or it can and that is, the enterprise simply does not need a workforce and accordingly planning, i just want to summarize what you said before and it is related to the reduction of the rate of decline of recovery well, that is, what the decline continues, but not so fast pace, and at the same time employment has stabilized, it seems that the business uses such a strategy that at first they feel the increase in demand for their products, growth, recovery, return to some kind of more peaceful times, and only after that they think about what is needed in the market of labor to hire a new person, that is, it does not proceed at a fast pace, something is wrong, the

company first hires a person and then waits when a job will be found for this person, on the contrary, which in principle looks quite logical, and the fact that is stabilizing now, well, these movements indicate that there is already some equilibrium in the market. of general trends that were unique, maybe people learned to attract foreign specialists, which now looks very strange, or maybe they hire specialists from other regions and provide them with a transfer to a new place of residence, it would be it is interesting to hear about some specific stories, such specific stories. in fact, there are none because we are

conducting such a mass survey, but uh, regarding such strategies and which ones are used by the business, but really, i want to say that more enterprises, in fact, we see a revival now in a greater way in the large sector and medium-sized businesses. that's it. well, they use it in such a strategy . sensing, as you rightly said, sensing the growth of the demand for new orders, then the support goes to uh, so that uh, already to look for new employees or to increase employment, but i want to say here that we fix it all happens at a fairly high level of uncertainty and that is, relatively speaking, when it is not clear what will happen and in economic theory, this is a very important indicator that characterizes the environment now it in ukraine it is very high and in the medium-term perspective it is

for six months and in the short-term it decreased in the summer very significantly and now here in august it has grown a little bit again, that is, when you don't know what, in principle. well, you're not sure what will happen in the next one or two months. that is, it's now that the small increase in this indicator is. i think there are reasons for such, well, delayed optimism that we now we are watching plus news. it seems to me that in august there were relatively positive news from the fronts. you will also see the positives regarding the counteroffensive in the

east of the country and the success of the direction. relocation, we know that many businesses are moving from dangerous regions where hostilities are still ongoing to safer western central regions, were there any questions on this topic, what can be said about businessmen, are they ready to risk en masse on the front of the victory this is true, but because we are asking, we have such a question about the basic expectations what what helped? which are further based on such traditional economic expectations related to the easing of pressure there.

but is there any regulation, that is, what traditionally worries ukrainian business, by the way, about problems with corruption in us, well, never in us they were not so bright, now only 5% consistently admit that this is a problem , that is, it has either decreased or has been relegated to the second place, well, finally, finally, the business itself already admits that we are not so corrupt, because corruption exists in any country and when our western partners say that we will not give you money because you have high corruption. well, i'm sorry, what years are you basing these assumptions on, and even if you take international transfers from there, it's about the citizens themselves feel and if, of course, the entire information field is full of news about how corrupt people are caught, then people think that corruption is high

. now we understand that corruption is not the worst thing. in fact, it can be russian troops, missiles, and if you compare, of course, business is in first of all, we need victory, so what about the relocation , let's get back to this topic. they asked about whether the business, er, how it relates to the revolution, or in general, the enterprises themselves, er, how they got to us, they faced this, another story , because revacation is such a pure relaxation when you were at point a and you moved to point b, er we found literally a handful of such businesses. maybe because, well, this survey is appropriate . you respond to those who feel a little better. a

business that has changed, the city of its location is in a state of adaptation, but we have such stories when, for example, you have there was a business that was located in several regions of ukraine, for example in uzhhorod, in rivne, somewhere near kharkiv, and there were different parts there, or warehouses , or some kind of production, that is, such a parallel structure, such a horizontal structure, and there were several such cases. when we came across an enterprise that said that we had implemented relaxation, but it was easier for us because we already had some capacities in the western regions, we moved them, and we are really talking about the staff, the same with, for example from kharkiv oblast to zakarpattia or from kharkiv oblast to ivano-frankivsk region

in order to build these business processes not always. there is an economic sense or there is a market for some kind of sales there in the east or in the south, and therefore not always in such a case, well, they are completely restored, or the structure of the business is as it was. there was someone who wanted to to extract yes from their colleagues from the territory where hostilities are taking place, they rather, even in the first months, i would say that they acted not so much in such a rational economic interest as in such a humanitarian and human interest in order for us to work people yes, business also saves people and really thinks about its employees. thank you for the story. we will

look at the website of the institute of economic research and political consultation to read the full report of the survey conducted by the institute. every month, and it is called ukrainian business during the war, there will be an august survey in just a few days . today, it is being presented to foreign partners of the institute, and espresso viewers heard about it one of the first . real gdp in annual terms this was reported by the state committee - statisticians at the ministry of economy expect that this year the economy will become, perhaps by 35-40%, due to a full-scale war in the national bank more they are optimistic, they believe that the economy will shrink by 33.4%, well, that doesn't look real because already now 37 the new premier of britain, forestry, has announced the freezing

of gas and electricity bills for two years, starting from october, households in britain will pay for gas and electricity no more than £2,500 a year in the first major political announcement of his premiership, lee stress said the new price guarantee would save the average household in england, wales and scotland 1 000 pounds per year, the same level of support will be provided in northern ireland, where there is a separate energy market. well, we can only add that this is of course not margaritatcher, which is quite a populist statement against the background of what is happening, the european central bank has raised three key interest rates by 75 basis points, this is stated in a message on the bank's website, since september 14, the interest rate on basic operations has been raised to a foot and 25 hundredths of a percent. well, for comparison

, the national bank of ukraine yesterday did not change its the main rate and left it at 25%, i.e. in europe it is 1.25 hundredths. and we have 25 units of the rate, but this can be understood because it is precisely in combat operations on our territory that the national bank believes that this is the level of the discount rate it guarantees the containment of inflation and the containment of the fall in the hryvnia exchange rate. also, the latest news for today, but very pleasant for us, is the arrest of the assets of a russian oligarch in ukraine, a member of the state duma in the amount of uah 10 billion, it is about 169 real estate objects, it is likely that it is about the owner the investigation of the kyiv cardboard and paper mill in the city of obukhiv volodymyr chk established that he

earned money in ukraine and took it to russia on this today all this is news of the economy during the war i andriy yanitsky tv channel espresso together we will win today we are looking for 15-year-old olga popova about the fate about whom nothing has been known for more than three months, i only know that the girl lived in donetsk region and it was there that she had to meet the war, the last time she contacted her was on may 25, then olya was staying with her uncle in the village of mangush, it was around 20 km from mariupol, the territory has long been occupied and assumes that there is simply no connection there, and therefore nothing is known about olga's fate. the girl is being sought by her father, who apparently spent a long time in
