The top three regional offices of the SPFU in terms of investment attraction in July were Rivne and Zhytomyr regions (UAH 206.3 million); Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernivtsi, and Ternopil regions (UAH 100.6 million); Lviv, Zakarpattia, and Volyn regions (UAH 95.4 million).
The privatization auctions of the SPFU are seen as a step towards Ukraine's victory and support for the country's economic front. This is because all the funds raised by the SPFU go to support the Defense Forces.
