DFC-led U.S.–Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund Appoints Key Operational Partner to Advance Ukraine’s Recovery

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) today announced that the U.S.-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund has appointed a key operational partner, marking another major milestone in the Fund's rapid progress toward delivering capital to support Ukraine's ongoing reconstruction and the long-term economic growth and security of both nations.

"DFC is excited to partner with an industry leader in this important step forward as we continue to operationalize the Fund," said Conor Coleman, DFC's Head of Investments and Chief of Staff. "Through the partnership with A&M, the Fund will help rebuild Ukraine's economy and strengthen industries that benefit both Ukraine and the United States."

The Fund selected Alvarez & Marsal as an advisor to support the Fund's investment processes. Alvarez & Marsal will assist in standing up and supporting the Fund's systems for evaluating and qualifying investment opportunities, as well as in conducting due diligence and financial analysis support.

The appointment of this operational partner follows DFC's equity seed capital commitment announced in September, matched by the Government of Ukraine, to launch the Fund's investment activities. The Fund-jointly supported by the United States and the Government of Ukraine-aims to mobilize additional private investment into sectors vital to Ukraine's recovery, such as energy, infrastructure, and critical minerals, while also strengthening U.S. and allied supply chains and advancing U.S. national interests.

The U.S.-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund represents a cornerstone of the Administration's efforts to deliver on its economic partnership with Ukraine, ensuring that American expertise and capital play a leading role in rebuilding a prosperous future for both the United States and Ukraine.
