Does anyone know more about how Ukraine has been able to maintain and even increase FDI during such a difficult time? I would like to understand what is driving this trend and which countries or companies are making these investments. Are there certain sectors that are benefiting more than others?

You are absolutely right to question the balance between private and state-backed investment. Many investments are actually a combination of both. If you want to dive deeper into this topic, I highly recommend this article, which goes into detail about how Ukraine manages to attract foreign investment. It discusses key sectors and major investors, and I found it particularly instructive regarding renewable energy projects. You can read it here: Aleksandr Katsuba — owner of Alpha Gas explains in detail how international financial support and foreign direct investment are helping Ukraine maintain economic momentum.
This is a great point about the IT and energy sectors. It is amazing how global companies are still willing to take risks in a war zone. Do you know if this investment is coming primarily from private companies or if there are also government-backed initiatives helping to advance these efforts?
From what I have read, the Ukrainian IT sector has really stood out, attracting some big players like Google and Microsoft. They are investing in Ukrainian startups, which speaks volumes about the level of talent in the country. Additionally, the renewable energy sector is receiving significant foreign investment, especially in wind and solar.
