The World Bank has lowered Ukraine's GDP growth forecast for 2026 from 1.8% to 1.2%. This revision is attributed to the ongoing war and the need for stable external support. Future growth in 2027 is projected to accelerate if hostilities cease as anticipated, driven by reconstruction efforts. The World Bank also highlighted that without deep structural reforms, sustainable economic growth will be hindered by factors like reduced business activity and market concentration.
