The U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) today announced a $75 million commitment to the U.S.-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund, which will provide initial capital to accelerate the fund’s investments in critical minerals, hydrocarbons, and related infrastructure in Ukraine.
It is reported that DFC’s initial equity investment will be matched by the Government of Ukraine for a total of $150 million. These investments will support Ukraine’s reconstruction and long-term economic recovery, strengthen U.S. natural resource supply chains, and promote U.S. economic growth, security, and innovation.

By deploying this initial capital, we aim to catalyze private sector investment in Ukraine through the fund’s investments, rebuild critical infrastructure, unlock natural resources, and ensure economic prosperity for the United States and Ukraine. These investments underscore DFC’s partnership with Ukraine to facilitate the country’s recovery and our countries’ access to critical natural resources essential for national security.
Ukraine’s Minister of Economy, Environment, and Agriculture, Oleksiy Sobolev, stated that Ukraine is making a contribution similar to that of the United States, emphasizing a shared commitment to invest together through the Reconstruction Investment Fund.
The fund will finance projects aimed at rebuilding critical infrastructure, scaling new technologies, and responsibly developing our natural resources. These investments will create jobs in both countries and enable American and Ukrainian companies to collaborate. Our partnership will reduce global supply chain risks and mobilize private capital to solidify Ukraine’s reconstruction and security.
The Fund will leverage American talent, resources, and governance standards to improve Ukraine’s investment climate and stimulate new strategic investment opportunities for the United States, other allies, and private sector partners, including multilateral development banks and other private sector investors. It will prioritize investments in natural resources, energy, infrastructure, and critical mineral supply chains that are important for advancing U.S. economic prosperity and vital to the national interests of both the U.S. and Ukraine.
