This was announced today at the briefing by the First Deputy Minister of Finance of Ukraine Oksana Markarova.
"We submitted a budget resolution for 2018-2020. Regardless of the reform that we have calculated and put into the budget resolution, as well as the modernization of pensions, we forecast that the deficit in these three years will remain at the level of 141 billion hryvnia ...
Then, from 2021, this deficit will gradually decrease, and in seven years It will be completely reduced to zero. The pension fund will become self-sufficient, "Markarov said..
According to her, modernizing pensions will require a lot of money, so in the first three years, the money that will generate pension reform will go on modernizing.
As previously reported by URA-Inform, Groisman announced an increase in pensions for nine million pensioners.
