INFLATION: Inflation upward trend has remained for almost one year following close to zero figures

9

Both core and non-core components were largely determined by hryvnia depreciation to US dollar

(by 241% from the end of 2013).

Administered prices and tariffs growth was driven largely by the start of utilities tariffs adjustment

to the level of coverage their cost and excisable goods prices increase.

REAL SECTOR: Key Sectors Production Index of Ukraine continued to decline in February, 2015

The worst situation was observed in industry, wholesale trade and construction, primarily due to

the destruction of transport infrastructure and production capacity in Donetsk and Luhansk

regions.

Agriculture output contribution to Key Sectors Production Index is very low in the beginning of the

year.

Industrial output by regions in February 2015, (y-o-y changes, %)

Escalation of military conflict caused destruction of infrastructure and stop of production

capacity in Donetsk and in Luhansk regions.

Strong decline in South regions was caused by decrease in consumer demand and destruction

of industrial links with Russia.

But strong growth was observed in Western region (Chernivtsi, Ternopyl, Volyn, Vinnytsya). 13

REAL SECTOR: Labor market indicators as well as household income severely deteriorated

Seasonally adjusted unemployment rate (according to ILO methodology) has reached the

highest level since the beginning of 2000s. Official unemployment rate also increased to

2.0% in February 2015.

Real wages have continued to decline since April 2014 (-17.3% y-o-y in January).

These trends pose a significant danger of further social pressure increase. Additionally

fiscal burden for subsidizing poverty will rise, especially taking into account Government

intentions to accelerate administrative tariffs increase.

REAL SECTOR: Real disposable household income continued to

Deceleration of nominal household income growth (down to 4.3% y-o-y) as well as inflation

surge (up to 14.7% y-o-y) both contributed to continued decline of real disposable

household income (-9% y-o-y in 3rd quarter of 2014).

At the same time propensity to save increased (11.4% in 3rd quarter of 2014, 9.6%

seasonally adjusted) mainly due to an increase in the deposit portfolio in foreign currency

due to exchange rate correction (deposits grew by 74.3% after revaluation).

FISCAL: Government broad deficit increased significantly in 2014

In 2014 consolidated budget deficit grew to 4.6% of GDP mainly due to debt service expenditures

growth (impact of UAH devaluation) and increase of defense expenditures (by 84.5%) caused by

military conflict. Primary deficit fell by 0.7 p.p. to 1.2% of GDP compared to 2013.

Quasi-fiscal deficit ran up to 8.8% of GDP (UAH 137.4 bn): Naftogaz – UAH 83.1 bn, banks and

Deposit Guarantee Fund – UAH 26.7 bn and other – UAH 27.6 bn.

FISCAL: Budget deficit was mostly covered by local QE in 2014 and

at the start of 2015

18

In 2014 the public debt increased rapidly due to sizeable government broad deficit and UAH

devaluation.

The state debt rose to UAH 947 bn from UAH 480.2 bn in 2013 (to 60.4% of GDP from 32.8%

of GDP).

The public debt share in foreign currency (incl. foreign-currency-denominated domestic

sovereign bonds) remained high – more then 62% in 2010-2014.

Public debt continued to grow in January 2015.

In January 2015 current account deficit amounted to 4.2% of GDP on the rolling 12-month basis,

which is marginally acceptable level for Ukraine in “normal conditions”;

In nominal term deficit shrunk to $0.3 bn. driven by lower external trade deficit, as a positive

impact of REER devaluation mostly manifested itself through a contraction of non-energy imports.

BOP: Exports sharp drop in Jan.2015 was driven by decline in both volumes and prices

Sharp decline of exports in January 2015 (31.6% y-o-y) was driven by the high basis of

comparison in 1H2014, due to non-economic factors (military conflict in Donbass, trade tensions

with Russia) and declining global commodity prices (steel, ore, grain);

Share of agricultural products increasing (29%→35%), while share of mineral export decreasing

(13%→8%) driven by discontinuing production of petroleum and coal shortage in the country;

Exports remains quite well diversified geographically, the share of exports to Russia has

decreased (9% in January 2015 vs. 17% in January 2014), while share of exports to Asia has

increased (35% in Jan.2015 vs. 27% in Jan.2014). Share of exports to Europe has not changed –

BANKING: Volumes and price of money were uncorrelated

Market interest rates fluctuations under stressed money market did not reflect the objective picture of changes in the value

of resources, as loans remain inaccessible for the majority of market participants.

Deposits outflow was mainly caused by the lack of trust to banks and interest rates didn’t play motivation role.

OUTLOOK: Consumer inflation will return to a single-digit level only in 2016

According to our assumptions rise of administratively regulated prices will have about 12 p.p.

effect on CPI in 2015 and 6 p.p. in 2016.

Inflation will start to slow down in the second half of 2015 as effects of exchange rate correction

will be decreased.

OUTLOOK: The recovery of economic activity will start from 2015Q2

GDP will be lower by 4.9% in 2015 compare to 2014. but the downsize risks are high

Similarly, negative output GAP will be closing gradually until the beginning of 2016 (we assume

some decrease in potential GDP level for 2014 due to military conflict).

OUTLOOK: Despite fast shrinking of fiscal deficit it remains high. Budget policy will be tight due to high debt repayments

Consolidated budget deficit in 2015 is expected to be at 4.0% of GDP mainly due to debt service

expenditures growth (impact of hryvnia devaluation) and increase of defense expenditures

caused by military conflict

• debt service will increase to 4.8% of GDP;

Quasi-fiscal deficit might decrease due to energy tariffs adjustment (positive effect on Naftogaz

deficit) but financial sector needs will remain on the high level (bank recapitalization, etc);

Budget consolidation is necessary, but general government deficit optimization requires reforms

of sectors with large role of state regulation (energy, transportation etc.)

OUTLOOK: New program with IMF assumes tight monetary policy

The growth of the monetary base should not exceed UAH 91 bn to prevent destabilization of the

financial system and the overall economy

The bulk of base money growth will be supplied through support of Deposit guarantee fund and

purchase of FX on market (to replenish foreign exchange reserves)

The NBU will actively use sterilization to achieve the money supply target

The purchase of T-bonds by the NBU will be limited to the amount agreed with IMF (Naftogaz

mainly)

OUTLOOK: Further improvement in the trade and C/A balances in 2015 is projected

Despite positive effect for exporters in a wake of price competitiveness improvement, exports

will continue decreasing due to:

• military conflict in the East and restrictive measures on trade with Russia;

• lower prices for grains, metals and ores;

• high dependence on imported raw materials;

• significant competition in foreign markets;

In case of deeper devaluation, exchange rate elasticity of imports will go down as the

structure of imports will shift to inelastic intermediate goods, needed for exported products.

OUTLOOK: Financial account will return to a positive area due to

high public external financing

In 2015, we project financial account with a moderate surplus:

• official financing: from IMF – $8.3 bn, from other IFIs and bilateral loans – $4.5 bn and

Eurobonds under U.S. government guarantees – $2 bn;

• net inflow of foreign direct investment will increase to $1.4 bn;

• further outflow of currency outside banks is not expected (+$0.1 bn) due to reduction

of devaluation expectations.

Rollover on external liabilities of the private sector is expected to decrease slightly in 2015,

in 2016 we expect gradual recovery.

INFLATION: Growth of agricultural production expenses and devaluation-caused imported food inflation are the main drivers of food inflation

50

Raw food prices annual growth was largely defined by:

• devaluation-caused imported food inflation: index FAO in USD decreased by 14% y-o-y, but

its UAH equivalent grew by 146.5% y-o-y in February 2015;

• growth of agricultural production expenses by 53.1% y-o-y as of January 2014.

Processed food prices increased by 38.1% y-o-y due to direct devaluation effect and also energy

and raw food prices growth.

Record grain harvest in 2014 (in spite of Crimea exclusion from the calculations) contained food

inflation.

INFLATION: Administratively regulated inflation has been defined by recurrent raise in utilities tariffs and excisable goods prices

Utility tariffs started to raise to the level of recovering their cost from May 2014 (annual growth in

February 2014 was 36.5%; contribution to headline inflation – 4.0 p. p.):

• natural gas tariffs grew by 62.8% y-o-y, hot water and heating – by 45%, cold water – by

52.2%, sewerage – by 74.8%, electricity – by 11.3%.

Annual increase of alcohol and tobacco prices accelerated to 33.5% y-o-y (2.3 p. p. – contribution

to inflation) due to regular increase in excises duties, minimum retail prices (for alcohol) and

introduction of excise taxes (5%) on retail sales of excisable goods in January 2015.

INFLATION. Fuel prices grew sharply despite oil prices annual fall on global markets

The inconsistence of fuel and world oil prices (in UAH equivalent) dynamics was significantly reduced after interbank

exchange rate liberalization (adjusting it to the real rate on the market). Anyway some divergence existed due to:

• increase in excise taxes for manufacturers and importers of petroleum products: in April 2014 for diesel –

by 31-113%, in January 2015 mainly for liquefied petroleum gas – by 14% (for gasoline and diesel – by 2-3%);

• excise tax introduction for alternative fuel manufacturers (since January 2015);

• an additional tax on currency transactions since April 2014;

• implemented in January 2015 excise tax (5% of sales) imposed on retailers selling of fuel;

• existence of some psychological factors in price formation (growing retailers margin through unfounded price hike).

In particular, last two factors and the use of domestically produced oil in petroleum production may explain significantly

faster retail fuel prices growth (by 83.8%) compared with the growth of prices set by manufacturers (38.1%).

Fuel prices rise provided small direct contribution to inflation (only 1.7 p.p.) but second-round effects could be important.

INFLATION: Producer Price Index depended more on ER factor due to high industrial reliance on imported inputs and high links with global prices (which substantially grew in UAH equivalent)

53

Growth in Producer Price Index was mainly caused by UAH devaluation that gave a rise to:

• UAH equivalent of external commodity markets prices (CRB index) grew by 118.5%, inflating

the prices in export oriented industries, although nominated in dollar prices declined by 23.8%;

• the increase in UAH equivalent of world steel price (by 124%) determined prices growth

in metallurgy (by 55.7% contributing 10.7 p. p. to producer inflation).

• imported raw materials and energy prices (marginal gas prices for industrial enterprises grew

by 83.1%).

INFLATION: The GDP deflator was moving closely with CPI in general

54

Unlike CPI, GDP deflator includes capital goods and export products, but excludes import

products • import exclusion should decrease devaluation pass-through to the GDP deflator, but

devaluation was significantly translated into GDP deflator through export (in the III quarter

2014 export and import deflators made very close but opposite by signs contributions to GDP

deflator: +27.6 p.p. and -25.6 p.p. respectively).

MONETARY: Dynamics of monetary aggregates was determined by

a loss of confidence in banking system

67

The growth of the broad money was driven solely by the growing funds in foreign currency

resulting, first of all, from exchange rate revaluation.

On the contrary, during the same period base money decreased, which was caused, in

particular, by the increased Government’s deposits in accounts with the NBU.
