Ukrainian bonds have risen in price: markets are put to the rapid end of the Trump war

According to journalists, investors in the bonds are betting that Ukraine will be ready to accept a peace agreement, which provides for the final transfer of territories. In this case, the economy will quickly recover in the coming years. The last significant consequence of the US election last week was that the cost of Ukraine's sovereign bonds increased by 12% compared to last month. The Financial Times writes about it.

According to journalists, such growth is indicative that investors believe that the new administration of US President Donald Trump will insist on a rapid cessation of war with Russia. They hope that the elections will contribute to the ceasefire and improve Ukraine's opportunities in terms of payments to creditors.

It is reported that this has happened against the backdrop of a spike in the world financial markets in recent weeks, which have been associated with a change in the White House management. Trump again stated that he would put an end to the war in Ukraine "during the day" after returning to the White House, but has not yet provided details of the plan on how to do it.

It is believed that investors in bonds are betting that Ukraine will be ready to accept a peace agreement, which provides for the final transfer of territories lost in the war and that its economy will quickly recover in the coming years. "The main part of the trade was actually based on the end of the war or at least on the possibility that Trump would start negotiating," said Ninety One, a representative of Ninety One, who owned some Ukrainian bonds.
