"The Ukrainian stock market has a future. Capital is like water—it will find its way, and Ukrainians are a nation capable of adapting very quickly," says Igor Hifes, CEO of S1 REIT, in a major new interview dedicated to the future of Ukraine's capital market and the role of private investors in the country's recovery.
In the feature, Igor Hifes explains why traditional banking instruments are no longer sufficient for economic development, how micro-investing unlocks access to assets previously available only to large players, and why the stock market should become a key driver of Ukraine's economic growth.
Key Takeaways from the Interview:
  • Over $130 billion in Ukrainian savings currently do not work to their full potential for the economy.
  • Micro-investing shapes a new investment culture and paves the way to quality assets for a wide audience.
  • Income-producing real estate remains one of the most stable instruments for preserving and growing capital.
  • The Ukrainian stock market has all the prerequisites for rapid development following the end of the active phase of the war.
  • S1 REIT plans to expand its fund portfolio and launch new investment projects in the near future.
Additionally, Igor Hifes discusses how S1 REIT funds operate, the sources of investor yield, and why citizen participation in financing Ukraine's reconstruction is not only an economic opportunity but also a crucial element in building a new class of owners in the country.
