4Assist associates, together with our consortium partners BDO (UK), carried out an EU Operational Assessment in Ukraine.

Operational Assessments are launched by the Directorate General of Economic and Financial Affairs (DG ECFIN) in order to assess the financial circuits of partner countries eligible for Macro-Financial Assistance (MFA) programmes. The MFA is a form of extraordinary financial (budgetary and balance of payments) support offered to pre-candidate and candidate countries to the EU, as well as countries of the European Neighbourhood.

This is the second such assessment in Ukraine in recent years which will lead to significant financial support for Ukraine.

Since 2011, our consortium has carried out Operational Assessments in the Kyrgyz Republic, Egypt, Jordan, Tunisia, Moldova and Georgia. 4Assist highly values the continued confidence of DG ECFIN in undertaking these critical assignments.
