Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The article provides a comprehensive study of the role of international financial organizations in the processes of economic stabilization of Ukraine amid the full-scale war and globalization transformations. Special attention is given to the analysis of the forms, volumes, and mechanisms of financing provided by the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and other international institutions. The effectiveness of external assistance in supporting macro-financial stability, strengthening the banking sector, reforming public administration, and developing critically important infrastructure is assessed. Key risks are identified, including growing debt burden, increased external influence on national economic policy, instability of financial flows in case of changes in donor countries, and difficulties in coordinating international aid. Recommendations are proposed to enhance the effectiveness of international support, optimize debt strategies, and reduce risks of excessive dependence on external resources. The study confirms that international cooperation is a key factor in maintaining Ukraine’s economic resilience but requires adaptation to the specifics of wartime and post-war periods and more flexible approaches in interaction with domestic reforms. The results emphasize the necessity of coordinated actions by international financial institutions, government authorities, and the private sector to ensure sustainable development, economic recovery, increased competitiveness, and integration into global economic processes. The article’s analytical base is grounded in a systematic review of contemporary scientific research on the impact of globalization processes on national economies and the role of international financial organizations in crisis conditions. Special focus is given to adapting external support mechanisms to the conditions of war and the post-war period, considering Ukraine’s unique political and economic context, as well as developing strategies for sustainable economic development amid growing uncertainty and geopolitical risks.
