Foreign investors were afraid of Ukraine after the Maidan


The total amount of foreign investment in Ukraine amounted to $ 51.2 billion. In 2015, which is 12% less than it was in 2013. Foreign investments go to Ukraine after the Maidan. 
But not all foreign investors have decided to leave Ukraine. Investments from the Netherlands and Switzerland to Ukraine have increased in 2015 in comparison with 2013 year. At the same time a very large outflow of foreign investment in Ukraine has been fixed for Cyprus, England and the Virgin Islands. 
It is connected to the fact that Ukrainian oligarchs were quick to pick up the money from the Ukraine after the Maidan. Traditionally Ukrainian oligarchs keep their money in Cyprus and other offshore and is why these investments were withdrawn from Ukraine.
