Description du projet ou contexte

Context and justification of the need

The State Property Fund of Ukraine and the Ministry of Economy and Environment face significant challenges in managing distressed and financially non-viable state-owned enterprises, including enterprises with illiquid or non-core assets, accumulated liabilities and limited possibility for operations. The existing framework for dealing with such assets remains fragmented and often results in lengthy restructuring or insolvency procedures and limited recovery of asset value. Against this background, upon the request of the Ministry of Economy, there is a need to assess alternative institutional and operational models for managing distressed state assets and to identify solutions that could improve the efficiency of their restructuring, disposal or liquidation.

The expert will conduct an in-depth assessment of the “bad bank” / specialised distressed-asset vehicle model as a potential mechanism for the centralised management, restructuring and resolution of illiquid or problematic assets of SOEs. The assignment will include an analysis of relevant international approaches and practices, assessment of their applicability to the Ukrainian legal and institutional context, and identification of the potential scope, governance structure, asset eligibility criteria and operational model of such structure. Based on the analysis, the expert will identify potential benefits and risks, legal and institutional prerequisites, and options for implementation in Ukraine, including recommendations on possible pilot application.

In addition, the expert will contribute to analytical work on internal control systems and anti-corruption frameworks within SOEs. This will include assessing existing arrangements, identifying key gaps and weaknesses, and developing recommendations for strengthening internal controls, risk management, and other relevant anti-corruption mechanisms.
